Tottori City Bus (鳥取市 循環バス「くる梨」ほか)

Grade D · 68.1 / 100

Unchanged since 2026-10-14.

What this grade measures

The quality of the schedule data in the feed scored here 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. Ask your AVL vendor why the feed stopped advancing; the GTFS-Realtime header timestamp should move forward on every publish.

    The realtime feed's last update was about 2 days old when sampled. A realtime feed this far behind has effectively stopped. Riders see buses that already left, or apps quietly fall back to the schedule while still showing a live label.

    This was measured over a realtime sampling window, so it has no feed-wide share.

    Estimated effort: A vendor support ticket; treat it as a feed outage.

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

    262 of 262 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.

    Fixing this covers all 262 stops in the feed.

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

  3. Set wheelchair_accessible on every trip. If every vehicle is accessible, this may be one default; otherwise use the value for each trip.

    144 of 144 trips don't say whether the vehicle is wheelchair accessible. Even with accessible stops, riders need to know the bus itself can take them.

    Fixing this covers all 144 trips in the feed.

    Estimated effort: A default or per-trip field in your export.

Riders and need behind these fixes

  • Rider-trip figures come from the United States National Transit Database, which does not cover this feed's country.
  • The served-area need overlays cover the United States and Canada, so none of them applies to this feed.

These describe this feed only. They do not rank agencies, and they do not change the grade or the order of the fixes.
