Why some APTPRA data is missing

The APTPRA website did not load when we checked it in September 2026. This page therefore uses the latest archived copy, from April 2026, and something may have changed since.

The special Holy Week timetables published by the press in April 2025 were for the holiday, not the everyday service.
