Grade B · 86.6 / 100

Up 1.7 points since 2026-07-08 (B to B).

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 up 4.0
  • Freshness no change
  • Rider experience no change

Fixed since the last check (1 finding):

  • Some files are missing recommended (not required) fields. (missing_recommended_field)

Top three things to fix

  1. Add fare_attributes.txt (or Fares v2 files) with your fare structure. If your service is fare-free, ask to have it marked fare-free instead.

    The feed contains no fare information. Riders see 'fare unknown' in trip planners and can't budget their trip; visitors are most affected.

    Effort: A small file for most flat-fare systems.

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

    Stops match shape out of order (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

    Effort: Varies.

    Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 7 observed fixes).

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

    Missing feed contact email and url (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

    Effort: Varies.

    Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 6 observed fixes).

NTD certification readiness: Ready

Published at a public URL, valid, and current: the three things the NTD GTFS requirement asks of a feed all hold here. Only your own D-10 certification makes that official; this is a heads-up, not a determination.

agency_id and NTD ID: Not checked yet. Setting your GTFS agency_id to your five-digit NTD ID is an optional way to line a feed up with its National Transit Database record. FTA links the two on your P-50 form, so it is not a required feed change. We don't have your NTD ID on file, so this is not checked yet.
