Top three things to fix

1. Re-export the feed with a calendar that reaches further out, and set feed_info feed_end_date past your next service change.

   Service data ended 555 day(s) ago. When the calendar runs out, trip planners stop showing this agency even though the buses are still running. Riders are told the service does not exist.

   Effort: Usually one export setting; export on a schedule so it never lapses again.

   Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 18 observed fixes).

2. Review the rule documentation for 'missing_required_column' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed.

   Missing required column (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

   Effort: Varies.

3. Review the rule documentation for 'equal_shape_distance_diff_coordinates' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed.

   Equal shape distance diff coordinates (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

   Effort: Varies.

Ready to send to the agency

Hi Altamont Corridor Express team, Service data ended 555 day(s) ago. When the calendar runs out, trip planners stop showing this agency even though the buses are still running. Riders are told the service does not exist. The fix is usually one export setting: Re-export the feed with a calendar that reaches further out, and set feed_info feed_end_date past your next service change. This came from your GTFS data quality scorecard, which checks the feed you publish and lists the fixes in plain language: https://gtfsscorecard.org/agency/altamont-corridor-express/

Copy this note from the full scorecard.

NTD certification readiness: Not ready

Resolve this before you certify on the D-10. 2 validator errors to resolve. Service data expired 554 days ago, so FTA would find the link out of date.

Current Not ready

Service data expired 554 days ago, so FTA would find the link out of date.

agency_id and NTD ID: Not aligned. Your feed's agency_id is CE; your National Transit Database ID is 90182. A feed that serves several agencies (a shared regional feed) can legitimately carry more than one agency_id, so a difference here is a heads-up, not an error. Optionally set the agency_id for your service to 90182 in agency.txt (and the matching agency_id in routes.txt) so the feed lines up with your NTD record. It is a convenience, not a required feed change: FTA also links agency_id to your NTD ID on your P-50 form.
