A data-quality and completeness lens to help an agency improve its GTFS feed. Not an official compliance determination from any transit program. New to this? How to read your scorecard. Interactive view of this scorecard. Rubric v1.3, validator 8.0.1.

Measured 3 of 4 score categories from the official feed URL on file.

How we measured this

Confidence in this measurement: medium.

  • Realtime quality was not measured this run. It does not count against the grade.
  • The feed was downloaded from the official feed URL on file.

Confidence describes how much the pipeline could measure this run, not the feed itself. It never changes the grade.

Top things to fix

Fix 01

Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops.Likely your team

254 of 254 stops don't say whether a wheelchair user can board there. Riders who use wheelchairs can't plan a trip when accessibility is marked 'unknown'; apps show no information at all.

⏱ A column in stops.txt; your scheduling software likely has it.worth about +25 points in its category

Fix 02

Set wheelchair_accessible on every trip. If every vehicle is accessible, this may be one default; otherwise use the value for each trip.Likely your export tool

32 of 32 trips don't say whether the vehicle is wheelchair accessible. Even with accessible stops, riders need to know the bus itself can take them.

⏱ A default or per-trip field in your export.worth about +15 points in its category

Fix 03

Only change the flagged IDs if an app needs basic ASCII values. Update each place that uses the ID. Keep all names and headsigns in their original language.

Some internal IDs use characters outside the basic text set. These IDs are valid UTF-8 data. This warning is only about support in older apps. It does not mean that names in other languages are wrong.

⏱ A planned ID change, not a quick text cleanup.worth about +8 points in its category

Rider view: what this feed publishes

A quick read of rider-facing information in this feed.

Schedule visibility
The feed's last published service date is in 237 days.
Published accessibility data
Accessibility information is stated for 0% of stops and 0% of trips. This measures published data, not whether stops or vehicles are physically usable.
Fare information
Fare information is published using GTFS Fares v1.
Realtime information
Realtime-feed availability and live-arrival coverage are not known from this scorecard.

Important: This does not rate service reliability. Riders should confirm current service alerts, fares, and accessibility accommodations with the transit operator before traveling.

Send your vendor a fix request

You may not control the GTFS export yourself. Copy this and send it to whoever runs your scheduling software export. It names each fix with the validator notice and a guide link.

Score by category

Correctness85.0 / 100

The MobilityData validator flagged 4 kinds of issue across 1413 instances (0 error, 1410 warning, 3 informational).

Freshness100.0 / 100

Service data covers the next 237 days.

Rider experience59.9 / 100

0% of stops state wheelchair accessibility (0% marked accessible, 0% marked not accessible). This measures what the feed publishes, not whether a stop is physically usable. Fare data is published.

Accessibility0 / 100

0% of stops state accessibility (0% marked accessible). Reflects what the feed states, not verified physical usability.

Over time

This is the first scorecard for this agency. A trend and a "what changed" summary appear here once it has been checked more than once.

Everything we checked

6 findings, ordered by severity.

Show every finding
  • Warning1402 instances

    Some internal IDs use characters outside the basic text set.

    These IDs are valid UTF-8 data. This warning is only about support in older apps. It does not mean that names in other languages are wrong.

    Fix: Only change the flagged IDs if an app needs basic ASCII values. Update each place that uses the ID. Keep all names and headsigns in their original language. (A planned ID change, not a quick text cleanup.)

    Finding code: non_ascii_or_non_printable_char · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

  • Warning254 instances

    254 of 254 stops don't say whether a wheelchair user can board there.

    Riders who use wheelchairs can't plan a trip when accessibility is marked 'unknown'; apps show no information at all.

    Fix: Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops. (A column in stops.txt; your scheduling software likely has it.)

    Finding code: scorecard_wheelchair_boarding_unknown · Read the fix guide · See GTFS Schedule reference (opens the GTFS Schedule reference on an external site)

  • Warning32 instances

    32 of 32 trips don't say whether the vehicle is wheelchair accessible.

    Even with accessible stops, riders need to know the bus itself can take them.

    Fix: Set wheelchair_accessible on every trip. If every vehicle is accessible, this may be one default; otherwise use the value for each trip. (A default or per-trip field in your export.)

    Finding code: scorecard_wheelchair_accessible_unknown · Read the fix guide · See GTFS Schedule reference (opens the GTFS Schedule reference on an external site)

  • Warning8 instances

    Some rider-facing names are in ALL CAPS or all lowercase.

    ALL-CAPS stop and headsign names are harder to read in apps and are read awkwardly by screen readers.

    Fix: Use mixed case for stop names and headsigns (e.g. 'Main St & 2nd Ave', not 'MAIN ST & 2ND AVE'). (Often a bulk fix in your scheduling software.)

    Finding code: mixed_case_recommended_field · Read the fix guide · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

  • Info2 instances

    The feed has a stretch of two weeks or more with no service running.

    A long gap can mean dates were left out of the calendar. Apps then show no trips on those days.

    Fix: Check whether the gap is real, like a seasonal break; if not, add the missing dates to the calendar. (A review of your calendar dates.)

    Finding code: big_gap_in_service · Read the fix guide · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

  • Info1 instance

    The feed includes a file that is not part of the GTFS spec.

    Apps ignore files they don't know, and a stray file can hide a misspelled standard file name.

    Fix: Check the flagged file name for a typo of a standard GTFS file. Remove it if it is a vendor extra. (A quick look at the flagged file.)

    Finding code: unknown_file · Read the fix guide · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

Conformance mark Not yet

One requirement remains for this feed to earn the conformance mark. States wheelchair access on 0% of stops and 0% of trips; the mark needs 90% of each.

Valid Met
Passes validation with no errors.
Current Met
Service data covers the next 237 days.
Accessible Not yet
States wheelchair access on 0% of stops and 0% of trips; the mark needs 90% of each.

In plain words: earn this mark when your feed passes validation, has not expired, and says whether nearly every stop and trip is wheelchair accessible.

A pass credential for a feed that is valid, current, and states wheelchair access on nearly every stop and trip. Accessibility here measures what the feed publishes, not whether a stop is physically usable. How the conformance mark works.

Clears the Google and Apple Maps four-week coverage bar. This feed has 237 days of service ahead, clearing the four-week (28-day) window Maps asks for. No validator errors either, so riders keep seeing this agency in their trip planners; warnings lower the grade here but do not remove a feed from Maps.

How this agency maps to the standards

The scorecard is a data-quality lens, not a compliance determination. Its universal references describe good GTFS and useful rider information. Useful references here are GTFS Schedule Best Practices, GTFS-Realtime Best Practices, MobilityData grading scheme, Google Transit publication guidance. Read the full standards crosswalk.

Correctness 85 / 100
GTFS Schedule best practices, checked by the MobilityData validator. MobilityData grading covers stop locations, route names, and colors. Google Transit requires a feed to pass validation for publication.
Freshness 100 / 100
GTFS Schedule best practices call for a dataset that stays current. An expired calendar can remove service from Google Transit and other rider trip planners.
Rider experience 60 / 100
GTFS Best Practices for rider-facing fields. MobilityData grading covers stop names and headsigns.
Realtime quality Not yet published
GTFS-Realtime best practices: a stable URL, high uptime, and frequent updates.

This page updates on every check. The record below does not: it is the dated file this grade came from, published at https://gtfsscorecard.org/data/artifacts/ako-yuranosuke-bus/2026-09-05.json and never overwritten, pinning the grade, category scores, rubric version, validator version, reader archive profile, and the scored feed's sha256 as they stood on 2026-09-05.
