Content

The three alert service categories are labeled as:

• Rail
• Bus
• Elevator & Escalator

The three alert status filters are labeled as:

• Current
• Upcoming
• All

If there are no alerts for a particular service or status, the alert list area displays:

• There are no status alerts for service. Last updated: timestamp.

If a service disruption has no end date provided, this displays:

• No end date scheduled yet.

If there is a URL provided in the data, this message displays as a link to that URL:

• More info on service impact to route.

Each alert displays in the list based on the data:

• The line icon is based on route_id.
• The bold heading displays the headerText value, which is auto-generated for elevator/escalator alerts.
• The alert content displays the descriptionText value and generates a message based on the active_period[0].start and active_period[0].end.
