SolTrans (Solano County Transit)

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

   Missing feed contact email and url (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

   Estimated effort: Varies.

   Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 6 observed fixes).

2. Pick a darker/lighter route_text_color for the flagged routes.

   Some route colors don't contrast with their text color. Route badges become unreadable, especially for riders with low vision.

   Estimated effort: One field per route.

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

   3 of 327 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.

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