An Alexa skill for New York City trans­port ser­vice changes

Play­ing around with the idea of Alexa Skills based on live data feeds, I cre­ated an Alexa Skill which an­nounces un­planned ser­vice changes of the New York City sub­way and bus lines, based on in­for­ma­tion pro­vided by the Met­ro­pol­i­tan Trans­porta­tion Au­thor­ity (MTA). This skill, avail­able in Eng­lish and Ger­man, was now cer­ti­fied and has gone live.
