Mountain View Transportation Management Association (MVgo)

What this grade measures

The quality of the schedule data this agency publishes 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:

1. Add feed_info.txt with feed_start_date and feed_end_date to your export.

   feed_info.txt is missing its start/end dates Apps and this scorecard can't warn anyone before the feed goes stale without stated validity dates.

   Estimated effort: Two fields, set once in export settings.

   Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 16 observed fixes).

2. Review the flagged fields and fill in the ones your riders would use.

   Some files are missing recommended (not required) fields. Recommended fields like agency_phone or stop descriptions make the feed more useful to riders and trip planners.

   Estimated effort: A field at a time; not urgent.

   Agencies here usually clear this within about 2 weeks (based on 8 observed fixes).

3. Review the rule documentation for 'route_short_name_too_long' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed.

   Route short name too long (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

   Estimated effort: Varies.
