  • Correctness no change
  • Freshness no change
  • Rider experience no change

Top three things to fix

  1. Delete the empty calendars or set their service days.

    Some service calendars have no days of the week switched on. Trips tied to these calendars never run; they are dead data that can mask real schedule problems.

    This is a validator notice, and the validator decides what each instance covers, so no share of the network can be read from it here.

    Effort: A few minutes in your scheduling software.

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

    Same route and agency url (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

    Effort: Varies.

Riders and need behind these fixes

  • This feed carries no National Transit Database ID, so annual rider-trips are not known for it.
  • Oregon as a whole measures lower on transit need. That is a statewide reading, not one for this feed's service area. Source: US Census ACS 5-year 2022, statewide overlay, as of 2026-10-05.

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