Top three things to fix
Re-generate shape distances in your export; flag to your vendor if it persists.
Some trips have stop times whose distances along the route go backwards. Apps can show buses jumping backwards or mis-order stops.
Effort: Usually an export-tool fix, not hand editing.
Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops.
321 of 332 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.
Effort: A column in stops.txt; your scheduling software likely has it.
Check the flagged stops' shape_dist_traveled against the route shape, and re-generate it on export if they disagree.
Some stops sit far from the route line, going by the feed's own distance values. Trip planners may draw the route down the wrong streets or point riders to the wrong corner.
Effort: Usually an export-tool fix, not hand editing.
