Swiss Public Transport
Wraps the free transport.opendata.ch API to plan journeys, check live departures, and generate SBB ticket booking links across Switzerland's entire public transport network. No API key or signup required. Four tools cover location search, A to B routing with via points and transport filters, stationboard queries, and direct deep links into SBB.ch for ticket purchase. Output is formatted as compact text rather than raw JSON to keep LLM context usage low. Station name disambiguation is built in. If you need official opentransportdata.swiss feeds for disruption alerts, occupancy forecasts, or train formation data, the related malkreide server covers those with an API key.

swiss-public-transport-mcp
MCP server for Swiss public transport — connections, stationboards, real-time delays, and direct booking links for SBB.
Wraps transport.opendata.ch — free, no API key, no signup. Covers the full Swiss network (SBB, Postauto, regional, trams, buses, ships, cableways).
Why this server
- Zero config. Install and go — no account, no token, no env vars.
- Booking links. Returns deep links into SBB.ch so the user can buy a ticket in one click.
- Disambiguation built in. Ambiguous station names return candidates instead of failing silently.
- Compact, model-friendly output. Formatted text designed for LLM context windows, not raw JSON dumps.
