Top three things to fix
Add feed_start_date and feed_end_date to feed_info.txt and include calendar end dates in your export.
Neither feed_info.txt nor the calendars state when service ends. Nobody can tell when this feed will go stale.
This one is about the feed as a whole, so there is no share of it to count.
Effort: Likely a one-time export setting.
Review the rule documentation for 'invalid_phone_number' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed.
Invalid phone number (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.
This is a validator notice, and the validator decides what each instance covers, so no share of the network can be read from it here.
Effort: Varies.
Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops.
10128 of 10128 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.
Fixing this covers all 10,128 stops in the feed.
Effort: A column in stops.txt; your scheduling software likely has it.
Riders and need behind these fixes
- Rider-trip figures come from the United States National Transit Database, which does not cover this feed's country.
- The served-area need overlays cover the United States and Canada, so none of them applies to this feed.
These describe this feed only. They do not rank agencies, and they do not change the grade or the order of the fixes.
