Selah Transit
Grade D · 62.4 / 100
The scoring methodology changed since the prior check; the trend restarts here without an improvement or regression claim.
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:
Re-export the feed with a calendar that reaches further out, and set feed_info feed_end_date past your next service change.
Service data ended 122 day(s) ago. When the calendar runs out, trip planners stop showing this agency even though the transit vehicles are still running. Riders are told the service does not exist.
Estimated effort: Usually one export setting; export on a schedule so it never lapses again.
Set wheelchair_accessible on every trip (most small-agency fleets are 100% accessible, so this is often a single default).
40 of 40 trips don't say whether the vehicle is wheelchair accessible. Even with accessible stops, riders need to know the transit vehicle itself can take them.
Estimated effort: Often one default setting in your export.
Remove past service periods the next time you export the feed.
Some service calendars in the feed have already expired. Expired calendars are dead weight and can hide real schedule problems from your staff and vendors.
Estimated effort: One setting in most export tools.
Trillium produces and hosts this feed as a service. These changes are made on their side: send the fix list to your Trillium contact and they apply it and republish.
