nearby_departures

What's leaving now from the MTR stations, bus stops and green minibus stops around a place in Hong Kong, nearest first: each route and direction once (at its nearest stop), where it's heading and the minutes until its next two departures, live from the operators. No destination needed: for "when's my bus" or "what leaves near here". Trams, ferries and Light Rail aren't included; for a trip from A to B use plan_trip.

service_updates

What's disrupted right now: MTR lines reporting a delay (MTR's next-train feed) and open road incidents such as accidents, breakdowns and lane closures (Transport Department special traffic news). Empty lists mean nothing is reported. plan_trip also flags these on the options they affect.
