Top three things to fix

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

   Invalid phone number (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

   Effort: Varies.

2. Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops.

   3238 of 3238 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.

   Effort: A column in stops.txt; your scheduling software likely has it.

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

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

   Effort: Two fields, set once in export settings.

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

Service data covers the next 55 days.

agency_id and NTD ID: Not aligned. Your feed's agency_id is SFMTA; your National Transit Database ID is 90015. A feed that serves several agencies (a shared regional feed) can legitimately carry more than one agency_id, so a difference here is a heads-up, not an error. Optionally set the agency_id for your service to 90015 in agency.txt (and the matching agency_id in routes.txt) so the feed lines up with your NTD record. It is a convenience, not a required feed change: FTA also links agency_id to your NTD ID on your P-50 form.
