Embark

Grade B · 86.9 / 100

Unchanged since 2026-10-06.

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. Turn on 'remove unused shapes' (or the like) in your export tool.

    The feed contains route shapes no trip uses. Harmless to riders, but it bloats the feed and suggests stale export data.

    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: One setting.

  2. Remove retired stops from the export, or add them back to the trips that should serve them.

    Some stops exist in the feed but no trip ever stops at them. Riders may walk to a stop where no transit vehicle is scheduled to arrive.

    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: A review pass in your scheduling software.

Riders and need behind these fixes

  • This feed carries no National Transit Database ID, so annual rider-trips are not known for it.
  • Oklahoma as a whole measures moderate on transit need. That is a statewide reading, not one for this feed's service area. Source: US Census ACS 5-year 2022, statewide overlay, as of 2026-10-05.

These describe this feed only. They do not rank agencies, and they do not change the grade or the order of the fixes.

agency_id equals NTD ID (optional): Not checked yet. This feed provides agency_id. For RY2026, keep one stable value for each NTD reporter represented in the feed and crosswalk it on the P-50 form. The value does not need to equal the five-digit NTD ID; we do not have that ID on file, so the optional equality comparison is not checked yet.
