Everything we checked

• Error1 instance

  The vehicle positions realtime feed failed during sampling.

  When this feed is down, riders see scheduled times presented as if they were live.

  Fix: Check the vehicle positions endpoint with your AVL vendor; it should return a fresh GTFS-Realtime protobuf on every request. (Usually a vendor support ticket.)

  Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 9 observed fixes).

• Error1 instance

  The service alerts realtime feed failed during sampling.

  When this feed is down, riders see scheduled times presented as if they were live.

  Fix: Check the service alerts endpoint with your AVL vendor; it should return a fresh GTFS-Realtime protobuf on every request. (Usually a vendor support ticket.)

  Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 5 observed fixes).

• Warning911 instances

  911 of 915 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.)

• Warning16 instances

  Some stops sit far from the route line they belong to.

  Trip planners may draw the bus route through the wrong streets or point riders to the wrong corner.

  Fix: Check the flagged stops' coordinates and the route shape in your scheduling software; re-snap whichever is misplaced. (A few minutes per flagged stop.)

  Agencies here usually clear this within about 2 weeks (based on 6 observed fixes).

• Warning9 instances

  Some service calendars have no days of the week switched on.

  Trips tied to these calendars never run; they are dead data that can mask real schedule problems.

  Fix: Delete the empty calendars or set their service days. (A few minutes in your scheduling software.)

• Warning5 instances

  Route long name contains short name (flagged by the MobilityData validator).

  See the linked rule for what this affects.

  Fix: Review the rule documentation for 'route_long_name_contains_short_name' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed. (Varies.)

• Warning1 instance

  This feed models stations or entrances but has no pathways.txt.

  Trip planners can't guide riders through the station, and there is no step-free route information for wheelchair users.

  Fix: Add pathways.txt connecting entrances, platforms, and any elevators, with a level for each. (Worth it for multi-level or large stations; flat stops don't need it.)

• Info4 instances

  Big gap in service (flagged by the MobilityData validator).

  See the linked rule for what this affects.

  Fix: Review the rule documentation for 'big_gap_in_service' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed. (Varies.)

  Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 13 observed fixes).

Beyond the grade

Opportunities that do not change your grade today: fare detail, on-demand service, and deeper accessibility data.

• 775 stop name(s) use abbreviations or symbols a screen reader may mispronounce, with no spoken form set ("3505 SW US Veterans Rd", "3515 SW US Veterans Rd", "700 SW Campus Dr at Doernbecher", and more).

  Consider: Add tts_stop_name with the spoken form, e.g. 'Main Street and Second Avenue', for the affected stops.

• This feed models stations or entrances but has no pathways.txt and levels.txt.

  Consider: Add pathways.txt connecting entrances, platforms, and elevators, and levels.txt for each floor, so the step-free route is described.
