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).

   721 of 721 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. Add feed_info.txt with feed_start_date and feed_end_date to your export.

   feed_info.txt is missing its start/end dates (the file itself is absent) Apps and this scorecard can't warn anyone before the feed goes stale without stated validity dates.

   Effort: Two fields, set once in export settings.

   Agencies here usually clear this within about 1 week (based on 16 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.

Published Ready

Published at a public URL.

Valid Ready

Passes validation with no errors.

Current Ready

Service data covers the next 72 days.

agency_id and NTD ID: Not aligned. Your feed's agency_id is d139e461-175c-4156-beb0-e6a23b64d978; your National Transit Database ID is 90090. A feed that serves several agencies (a shared regional feed) can legitimately carry more than one agency_id, so a difference here is a heads-up, not an error. Optionally set the agency_id for your service to 90090 in agency.txt (and the matching agency_id in routes.txt) so the feed lines up with your NTD record. It is a convenience, not a required feed change: FTA also links agency_id to your NTD ID on your P-50 form.
