A data-quality and completeness lens to help an agency improve its GTFS feed. Not an official compliance determination from any transit program. New to this? How to read your scorecard. Interactive view of this scorecard. Rubric v1.4, validator 8.0.1.

Measured 3 of 4 score categories from the feed URL on file (publisher not verified).

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

Indiana County Transit Authority (IndiGO)’s published feed lists 13 bus routes, 1,307 scheduled trips and 292 stops. Its service dates run from 2026-09-03 through 2027-06-30.

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

292 of 292 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 292 stops in the feed.

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

Fix 02

Add feed_contact_email or feed_contact_url to feed_info.txt.Likely your export tool

feed_info.txt lists no contact email and no contact URL. Without a contact, apps like Google Maps can't reach you when they find a problem in the feed.

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.

⏱ One field, set once in export settings.worth about +4 points in its category

Riders and need behind these fixes

  • No ridership snapshot was on hand when this was built, so annual rider-trips are not known.
  • Pennsylvania 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.

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

How to make and check these changes

Check the result on the published feed. Read the guide, make the change in your tool, and use the next comparable run to see whether the finding is still reported. Only an action or ticket record can attribute who made the change.

  1. Fix 01 · Read the fix guide for scorecard_wheelchair_boarding_unknown

    Make the change. Make this change in whatever tool produces your feed, then re-export.

    Check the result. The next scorecard run checks this finding again. If a comparable check no longer reports it, the feed's clearance log records that result. This confirms feed state, not who made the change. Self-check a feed before you publish.

  2. Fix 02 · Read the fix guide for missing_feed_contact_email_and_url

    Make the change. Make this change in whatever tool produces your feed, then re-export.

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 253 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.

Correctness92.0 / 100

Freshness100.0 / 100

Service data covers the next 253 days.

Rider experience67.4 / 100

0% of stops state wheelchair accessibility (0% marked accessible, 0% marked not accessible). This measures what the feed publishes, not whether a stop is physically usable. Fare data is published.

Accessibility37.5 / 100

0% of stops state accessibility (0% marked accessible). Reflects what the feed states, not verified physical usability.

2 accessibility depth signals

  • 6 route badge(s) pair a color and text color below the WCAG 4.5:1 contrast bar (1, 2, 3, 5, 701, and more).

    Consider: Adjust route_color or route_text_color so each pair clears 4.5:1. Often switching the text between black and white is enough.

  • 171 stop name(s) use abbreviations or symbols a screen reader may mispronounce, with no spoken form set ("Dunkin (Bus Stop on Oakland Ave)", "Dollar General (N.4th St)", "Philadelphia St. / Christy Park Dr.", and more).

    Consider: Add tts_stop_name with the spoken form, e.g. 'Main Street and Second Avenue', for the affected stops.

Opportunities to strengthen the data, not deductions from the sub-score above. States what the second accessibility lens can check from the feed, not verified physical usability.

Over time

This is the first scorecard for this agency. A trend and a "what changed" summary appear here once it has been checked more than once.

Everything we checked

4 findings, ordered by severity.

Show every finding
  • Warning292 instances

    292 of 292 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.

    Fix: Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops. (A column in stops.txt; your scheduling software likely has it.)

    Finding code: scorecard_wheelchair_boarding_unknown · Read the fix guide for scorecard_wheelchair_boarding_unknown · See GTFS Schedule reference

  • Warning1 instance

    feed_info.txt lists no contact email and no contact URL.

    Without a contact, apps like Google Maps can't reach you when they find a problem in the feed.

    Fix: Add feed_contact_email or feed_contact_url to feed_info.txt. (One field, set once in export settings.)

    Finding code: missing_feed_contact_email_and_url · Read the fix guide for missing_feed_contact_email_and_url · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules

  • Warning1 instance

    Some rider-facing names are in ALL CAPS or all lowercase.

    ALL-CAPS stop and headsign names are harder to read in apps and are read awkwardly by screen readers.

    Fix: Use mixed case for stop names and headsigns (e.g. 'Main St & 2nd Ave', not 'MAIN ST & 2ND AVE'). (Often a bulk fix in your scheduling software.)

    Finding code: mixed_case_recommended_field · Read the fix guide for mixed_case_recommended_field · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules

  • Info1 instance

    feed_info.txt has no technical contact (feed_contact_email or feed_contact_url).

    App makers and state data programs have nobody to email when they spot a problem. Small errors then sit in the feed for months.

    Fix: Add feed_contact_email to feed_info.txt. (One field.)

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 253 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) Equal
This feed's agency_id also equals its NTD ID (30177). Equality is allowed but not required; keep the value stable and retain the P-50 crosswalk.
shapes.txt covers your trips Ready
All 1307 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 253 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 253 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 92 / 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 67 / 100
GTFS Best Practices for rider-facing fields. MobilityData grading covers stop names and headsigns.
