Lane Transit District (LTD)
Grade F · 39.2 / 100
Unchanged since 2026-10-06.
What this grade measures
The quality of the schedule data in the feed scored here for trip-planning apps: whether riders using Google Maps, Apple Maps, or Transit see current, correct, and complete information. It measures the data feed, not service quality or operations.
Progress this period
No newly cleared items this period. The score and trend above reflect where the feed stands today.
What needs attention next
Three improvements, in priority order, each sized so the board can see what it is approving:
Re-export the feed with a calendar that reaches further out. Set feed_end_date in feed_info.txt past your next service change.
Service data ended 249 day(s) ago. When the calendar runs out, trip planners stop showing this agency even though the buses are still running. Riders are told the service does not exist.
This one is about the feed as a whole, so there is no share of it to count.
Estimated effort: Usually one export setting; export on a schedule so it never lapses again.
Check the trip updates endpoint with your AVL vendor; it should return a fresh GTFS-Realtime protobuf on every request.
The trip updates realtime feed failed during sampling. When this feed is down, riders see scheduled times presented as if they were live.
This was measured over a realtime sampling window, so it has no feed-wide share.
Estimated effort: Usually a vendor support ticket.
Check the vehicle positions endpoint with your AVL vendor; it should return a fresh GTFS-Realtime protobuf on every request.

Riders and need behind these fixes
- No ridership snapshot was on hand when this was built, so annual rider-trips are not known.
- Oregon 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 2026-10-05.
These describe this feed only. They do not rank agencies, and they do not change the grade or the order of the fixes.
