Top three things to fix
Review the rule documentation for 'duplicate_key' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed.
Duplicate key (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.
Effort: Varies.
Ask your AVL vendor to publish updates at least every 20 seconds (the Caltrans guideline).
Realtime data was up to 790 seconds old when sampled. Stale positions and predictions are worse than none: riders watch a bus that already left.
Effort: A vendor configuration question.
Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops.
1034 of 1034 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.
