City of Sierra Vista

Grade F · 52.5 / 100

Unchanged since 2026-07-31.

For this call: lead with the grade and the three fixes below, then confirm the feed is current and the NTD details line up. Each fix is framed as a next step, not a failure.

What changed since the last check

  • Correctness no change
  • Freshness no change
  • Rider experience no change

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 2770 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.

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

    Stop time timepoint without times (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

    Effort: Varies.

  3. Remove past service periods the next time you export the feed.

    Some service calendars in the feed have already ended. Expired calendars are dead weight and can hide real schedule problems from your staff and vendors.

    Effort: One setting in most export tools.
