NTD GTFS readiness: Needs attention
This feed is close to NTD-ready. 4 validator errors to resolve.
- Published Ready
- Published at a public URL.
- Valid Needs attention
- 4 validator errors to resolve.
- Current Ready
- Service data covers the next 56 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 NTD ID (optional): Different (allowed). Your feed's agency_id is RTD; your National Transit Database ID is 80006. 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 RTD to NTD ID 80006, and keep the feed value stable. Do not change it solely to make the two values equal.
The bar this score answers to
