Top three things to fix

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

    108 of 108 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.

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

    14 of 14 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.

  3. Populate trip_headsign to match what the bus displays.

    14 of 14 trips have no headsign. Riders at the stop can't tell which direction a bus is going.

    Effort: Usually a bulk edit in your scheduling software.
