Top three things to fix
Review the flagged fields and fill in the ones your riders would use.
Some files leave out fields that GTFS asks for but does not require. Recommended fields like agency_phone or stop descriptions make the feed more useful to riders and trip planners.
Effort: A field at a time; not urgent.
Agencies here usually clear this within about 2 weeks (based on 8 observed fixes).
Review the rule documentation for 'leading_or_trailing_whitespaces' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed.
Leading or trailing whitespaces (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.
Effort: Varies.
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).
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.
- Published Ready
- Published at a public URL.
- Valid Ready
- Passes validation with no errors.
- Current Ready
- Service data covers the next 176 days.
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.
