Catalysis of the reaction: a nucleoside triphosphate + H2O = nucleoside diphosphate + phosphate. Catalysis of movement along a polymeric molecule such as a microfilament or microtubule, coupled to the hydrolysis of a nucleoside triphosphate. Catalysis of movement along a microtubule toward the minus end, coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP (or GTP). Catalysis of movement along a microtubule toward the plus end, coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP (or GTP). Catalysis of movement along a microtubule, coupled to the hydrolysis of a nucleoside triphosphate (usually ATP).
