KVB: Search Stops
KVB via Parse · travel
Search for transit stops/stations by name. Returns matching stops with their IDs, coordinates, and available transit lines. Useful for resolving a human-readable name to a stop ID required by get_departures. Results may span the entire NRW transit network, not just Cologne city limits. Access real-time departure schedules and stop information for the Cologne public transit system (KVB - Kölner Verkehrs-Betriebe), including trams (Stadtbahn), buses, and regional rail. Fulfilled by Parse from www.kvb.koeln.
