Call-prep brief · checked 2026-07-09

Westchester County Bee-Line System (WCDOT)

Grade D · 62.5 / 100

Unchanged since 2026-07-08.

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

What changed since the last check

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

Top three things to fix

  1. Set wheelchair_accessible on every trip (most small-agency fleets are 100% accessible, so this is often a single default).

    4142 of 4142 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: Often one default setting in your export.

    Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 5 observed fixes).

  2. Add fare_attributes.txt (or Fares v2 files) with your fare structure. If your service is fare-free, ask to have it marked fare-free instead.

    The feed contains no fare information. Riders see 'fare unknown' in trip planners and can't budget their trip; visitors are most affected.

    Effort: A small file for most flat-fare systems.

  3. Check the flagged stop times for transposed minutes.

    Some scheduled trips travel implausibly fast between stops. Usually a typo'd stop time; riders get impossible arrival estimates.

    Effort: A few minutes per flagged trip.

    Agencies here usually clear this within about 2 weeks (based on 6 observed fixes).

NTD certification readiness: Ready

This feed looks ready for your NTD certification: published at a public URL, valid, and current. The official check is still your D-10 certification.

agency_id and NTD ID: Not checked yet. Setting your GTFS agency_id to your five-digit NTD ID is an optional way to line a feed up with its National Transit Database record. FTA links the two on your P-50 form, so it is not a required feed change. We don't have your NTD ID on file, so this is not checked yet.
