Call-prep brief · checked 2026-07-23

Toyama Horikawa Minami Community Bus (富山市 堀川南コミュニティバス)

Grade C · 71.0 / 100

First check for this agency, so there is no trend yet.

For this call: lead with the grade and the three fixes below, then confirm the feed is current and the rider information is complete. Each fix is framed as a next step, not a failure.

What changed since the last check

No category changes since the last check.

Top three things to fix

  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 hours 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.

    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.

    30 of 30 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. Set wheelchair_accessible on every trip. If every vehicle is accessible, this may be one default; otherwise use the value for each trip.

    8 of 8 trips don't say whether the vehicle is wheelchair accessible. Even with accessible stops, riders need to know the bus itself can take them.

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