How we measured this

Confidence in this measurement: medium.

Realtime quality was not measured this run. It does not count against the grade.
The feed was downloaded from the configured feed URL. Publisher ownership of that URL is not verified.

Confidence describes how much the pipeline could measure this run, not the feed itself. It never changes the grade.

About this feed

Victoria Transit (Golden Crescent Regional Planning Commission)’s published feed lists 6 bus routes, 96 scheduled trips and 164 stops. Its service dates run from 2026-09-01 through 2027-08-31.

Top things to fix

Fix 01

Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops.Likely your team

164 of 164 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.

Fixing this covers all 164 stops in the feed.

⏱ A column in stops.txt; your scheduling software likely has it.worth about +25 points in its category

Fix 02

Turn on shape cleanup in your export tool, or drop the repeated points from shapes.txt.Likely your export tool

Some route lines list the same point twice in a row. Repeated points don't hurt riders, but they can skew distance math and hint at a shaky export.

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.

⏱ Usually one export setting.worth about +6 points in its category

Fix 03

Set trip_headsign to the trip's last stop or its overall destination.Likely your export tool

Some trip headsigns name a stop along the way, not the final destination. The sign should tell riders where the bus ends up, so a midpoint name can send them the wrong way.

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.

⏱ Usually a bulk edit in your scheduling software.

Riders and need behind these fixes

More than one feed record claims this National Transit Database reporter, so its rider-trips are held back rather than counted against any single feed.
Texas as a whole measures lower 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 2026-10-19.

Rider view: what this feed publishes

A quick read of rider-facing information in this feed.

Schedule visibility: The feed's last published service date is in 315 days.
Published accessibility data: Accessibility information is stated for 0% of stops and 100% of trips. This measures published data, not whether stops or vehicles are physically usable.
Fare information: Fare information is published using GTFS Fares v1.
Realtime information: Realtime-feed availability and live-arrival coverage are not known from this scorecard.

Important: This does not rate service reliability. Riders should confirm current service alerts, fares, and accessibility accommodations with the transit operator before traveling.

Send your vendor a fix request

You may not control the GTFS export yourself. Copy this and send it to whoever runs your scheduling software export. It names each fix with the validator notice and a guide link.

NTD GTFS readiness Ready

Published at a public URL, valid, current, and identified with agency_id: the four feed checks for RY2026 all hold here. Only your own D-10 and P-50 filings make that official; this is a heads-up, not a determination.

Published Ready: Published at a public URL.
Valid Ready: Passes validation with no errors.
Current Ready: Service data covers the next 315 days.
agency_id provided Ready: agency.txt provides agency_id. For RY2026, keep one stable value for each NTD reporter represented in the feed and crosswalk each value on the P-50 form.

agency_id equals your NTD ID (optional) Different (allowed): Your feed's agency_id is gcrpc-tx-us; your National Transit Database ID is 60095. A feed that serves several agencies (a shared regional feed) can legitimately carry more than one agency_id. The values do not need to equal the five-digit NTD ID, so this difference is allowed and carries no score. Confirm that P-50 crosswalks agency_id gcrpc-tx-us to NTD ID 60095, and keep the feed value stable. Do not change it solely to make the two values equal.

shapes.txt covers your trips Ready: All 96 trips have a shape in shapes.txt.

In plain words: if you report to the federal transit database, you have to publish a working, up-to-date feed, provide a stable agency_id for each represented reporter, and confirm the feed and P-50 crosswalk each year. This box is a heads-up; your filings are the official check.

A readiness signal mapping this feed to the FTA National Transit Database GTFS requirement (Report Year 2023 onward: a public, valid, current feed, certified annually on the D-10). For RY2026, each represented reporter needs a stable agency_id, unique within the feed and crosswalked to its five-digit NTD ID on P-50; the values do not need to be equal. FTA also requires shapes.txt in the published GTFS: Full Reporters from Report Year 2025, and Reduced, Rural, and Tribal Reporters from Report Year 2026. Not an official determination; your certification is the official check.

Conformance mark Not yet

One requirement remains for this feed to earn the conformance mark. States wheelchair access on 0% of stops and 100% of trips; the mark needs 90% of each.

Valid Met: Passes validation with no errors.
Current Met: Service data covers the next 315 days.
Accessible Not yet: States wheelchair access on 0% of stops and 100% of trips; the mark needs 90% of each.

In plain words: earn this mark when your feed passes validation, has not expired, and says whether nearly every stop and trip is wheelchair accessible.

A pass credential for a feed that is valid, current, and states wheelchair access on nearly every stop and trip. Accessibility here measures what the feed publishes, not whether a stop is physically usable. How the conformance mark works.

Clears the Google and Apple Maps four-week coverage bar. This feed has 315 days of service ahead, clearing the four-week (28-day) window Maps asks for. No validator errors either, so riders keep seeing this agency in their trip planners; warnings lower the grade here but do not remove a feed from Maps.

How this agency maps to the standards

The scorecard is a data-quality lens, not a compliance determination. Its universal references describe good GTFS and useful rider information. Useful references here are GTFS Schedule Best Practices, GTFS-Realtime Best Practices, MobilityData grading scheme, Google Transit publication guidance, FTA National Transit Database GTFS requirement. Read the full standards crosswalk.

Correctness 93 / 100: GTFS Schedule best practices, checked by the MobilityData validator. MobilityData grading covers stop locations, route names, and colors. Google Transit requires a feed to pass validation for publication. FTA NTD readiness also checks that the published feed is valid.
Freshness 100 / 100: GTFS Schedule best practices call for a dataset that stays current. An expired calendar can remove service from Google Transit and other rider trip planners. FTA NTD readiness also checks that the published feed is current.
Rider experience 75 / 100: GTFS Best Practices for rider-facing fields. MobilityData grading covers stop names and headsigns.
Realtime quality Not yet published: GTFS-Realtime best practices: a stable URL, high uptime, and frequent updates.
