First scorecard for this agency

Catalogued in Ontario, Canada.

Covers 48 daysRealtime not yet published

A data-quality and completeness lens to help an agency improve its GTFS feed. Not an official compliance determination from any transit program. New to this? How to read your scorecard. Interactive view of this scorecard. Rubric v1.2, validator 8.0.1.

Checked for changes 5 hours ago; last changed 11 hours ago.

Measured 3 of 4 score categories from the agency's own feed.

How we measured this

Confidence in this measurement: medium.

  • Realtime quality was not measured this run. It does not count against the grade.
  • The feed was downloaded from the agency's own URL.

Confidence describes how much the pipeline could measure this run, not the feed itself. It never changes the grade.

Top things to fix

Fix 01

Use mixed case for stop names and headsigns (e.g. 'Main St & 2nd Ave', not 'MAIN ST & 2ND AVE').Likely your export tool

Some rider-facing names are in ALL CAPS or all lowercase. ALL-CAPS stop and headsign names are harder to read in apps and are read awkwardly by screen readers.

⏱ Often a bulk fix in your scheduling software.worth about +8 points in its category

Fix 02

Check the flagged stops' shape_dist_traveled against the route shape, and re-generate it on export if they disagree.Likely your export tool

Some stops sit far from the route line, going by the feed's own distance values. Trip planners may draw the route down the wrong streets or point riders to the wrong corner.

⏱ Usually an export-tool fix, not hand editing.worth about +8 points in its category

Fix 03

Delete the empty calendars or set their service days.Likely your export tool

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.

⏱ A few minutes in your scheduling software.worth about +4 points in its category

How to make and check these changes

Check the result on the published feed. Read the guide, make the change in your tool, and use the next comparable run to see whether the finding is still reported. Only an action or ticket record can attribute who made the change.

  1. Use mixed case for stop names and headsigns (e.g. 'Main St & 2nd Ave', not 'MAIN ST & 2ND AVE'). · Read the fix guide

    Make the change. Make this change in whatever tool produces your feed, then re-export.

    Check the result. The next scorecard run checks this finding again. If a comparable check no longer reports it, the feed's clearance log records that result. This confirms feed state, not who made the change. Self-check a feed before you publish.

Rider view: what this feed publishes

A quick read of rider-facing information in this feed.

Schedule visibility
The feed's last published service date is in 48 days.
Published accessibility data
Accessibility information is stated for 100% of stops and 100% of trips. This measures published data, not whether stops or vehicles are physically usable.
Fare information
Fare information is published using GTFS Fares v1.
Realtime information
Realtime-feed availability and live-arrival coverage are not known from this scorecard.

Important: This does not rate service reliability. Riders should confirm current service alerts, fares, and accessibility accommodations with the transit operator before traveling.

Send your vendor a fix request

You may not control the GTFS export yourself. Copy this and send it to whoever runs your scheduling software export. It names each fix with the validator notice and a guide link.

Score by category

Correctness66.2 / 100

The MobilityData validator flagged 9 kinds of issue across 4947 instances (0 error, 4935 warning, 12 informational).

Freshness80.0 / 100

Service data covers the next 48 days.

Rider experience77.5 / 100

100% of stops state wheelchair accessibility (81% marked accessible, 19% marked not accessible). This measures what the feed publishes, not whether a stop is physically usable. Fare data is published.

Accessibility100 / 100

100% of stops state accessibility (81% marked accessible). Reflects what the feed states, not verified physical usability.

3 accessibility depth signals

  • 33 route badge(s) pair a color and text color below the WCAG 4.5:1 contrast bar (002, 009, 010, 012, 013, and more).

    Consider: Adjust route_color or route_text_color so each pair clears 4.5:1. Often switching the text between black and white is enough.

  • 4089 stop name(s) use abbreviations or symbols a screen reader may mispronounce, with no spoken form set ("HWY 7 / MARTIN GROVE", "HWY 7 / KIPLING", "HWY 7 / KIPLING", and more).

    Consider: Add tts_stop_name with the spoken form, e.g. 'Main Street and Second Avenue', for the affected stops.

  • This feed models stations or entrances but has no pathways.txt and levels.txt.

    Consider: Add pathways.txt connecting entrances, platforms, and elevators, and levels.txt for each floor, so the step-free route is described.

Opportunities to strengthen the data, not deductions from the sub-score above. States what the second accessibility lens can check from the feed, not verified physical usability.

Over time

This is the first scorecard for this agency. A trend and a "what changed" summary appear here once it has been checked more than once.

Everything we checked

12 findings, ordered by severity.

Show every finding
  • Warning4358 instances

    Some rider-facing names are in ALL CAPS or all lowercase.

    ALL-CAPS stop and headsign names are harder to read in apps and are read awkwardly by screen readers.

    Fix: Use mixed case for stop names and headsigns (e.g. 'Main St & 2nd Ave', not 'MAIN ST & 2ND AVE'). (Often a bulk fix in your scheduling software.)

    Validator rule: mixed_case_recommended_field · Read the fix guide · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

  • Warning572 instances

    Some stops sit far from the route line, going by the feed's own distance values.

    Trip planners may draw the route down the wrong streets or point riders to the wrong corner.

    Fix: Check the flagged stops' shape_dist_traveled against the route shape, and re-generate it on export if they disagree. (Usually an export-tool fix, not hand editing.)

    Validator rule: stop_too_far_from_shape_using_user_distance · Read the fix guide · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

  • Warning2 instances

    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.

    Fix: Delete the empty calendars or set their service days. (A few minutes in your scheduling software.)

    Validator rule: service_has_no_active_day_of_the_week · Read the fix guide · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

  • Warning1 instance

    Some service calendars in the feed have already ended.

    Expired calendars are dead weight and can hide real schedule problems from your staff and vendors.

    Fix: Remove past service periods the next time you export the feed. (One setting in most export tools.)

    Validator rule: expired_calendar · Read the fix guide · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

  • Warning1 instance

    feed_info.txt lists no contact email and no contact URL.

    Without a contact, apps like Google Maps can't reach you when they find a problem in the feed.

    Fix: Add feed_contact_email or feed_contact_url to feed_info.txt. (One field, set once in export settings.)

  • Warning1 instance

    Some stops sit far from the route line they belong to.

    Trip planners may draw the bus route through the wrong streets or point riders to the wrong corner.

    Fix: Check the flagged stops' coordinates and the route shape in your scheduling software; re-snap whichever is misplaced. (A few minutes per flagged stop.)

  • Warning1 instance

    This feed models stations or entrances but has no pathways.txt.

    Trip planners can't guide riders through the station, and there is no step-free route information for wheelchair users.

    Fix: Add pathways.txt connecting entrances, platforms, and any elevators, with a level for each. (Worth it for multi-level or large stations; flat stops don't need it.)

  • Info4253 instances

    About 4253 stop names are written in ALL CAPS.

    Mixed-case names are easier to read in apps and are read more naturally by screen readers.

    Fix: Rename stops to mixed case where the language has letter case (for example, 'Central Station'). (Often a bulk fix in your scheduling software.)

    Platform without parent station (flagged by the MobilityData validator).

    See the linked rule for what this affects.

    Fix: Review the rule documentation for 'platform_without_parent_station' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed. (Varies.)

    Unused station (flagged by the MobilityData validator).

    See the linked rule for what this affects.

    Fix: Review the rule documentation for 'unused_station' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed. (Varies.)

  • Info1 instance

    Some files contain columns that are not part of the GTFS spec.

    Harmless to riders, but apps ignore these columns and they can hide typos in real column names.

    Fix: Check the flagged column names for misspellings of standard GTFS fields; remove them if they are vendor extras. (A quick look at the flagged files.)

    Validator rule: unknown_column · Read the fix guide · See MobilityData GTFS Validator rules (opens the validator rules on an external site)

  • Info1 instance

    feed_info.txt has no technical contact (feed_contact_email or feed_contact_url).

    Trip-planning apps and regional data coordinators have nobody to email when they spot a problem with your feed, so problems linger.

    Fix: Add feed_contact_email to feed_info.txt. (One field.)

Conformance mark Awarded

This feed earns the conformance mark: valid, current, and stating wheelchair access on nearly every stop and trip.

GTFS conformance mark for York Region Transit (YRT)

Valid Met
Passes validation with no errors.
Current Met
Service data covers the next 48 days.
Accessible Met
States wheelchair access on 100% of stops and 100% of trips.

In plain words: earn this mark when your feed passes validation, has not expired, and says whether nearly every stop and trip is wheelchair accessible.

A pass credential for a feed that is valid, current, and states wheelchair access on nearly every stop and trip. Accessibility here measures what the feed publishes, not whether a stop is physically usable. How the conformance mark works.

Clears the Google and Apple Maps four-week coverage bar. This feed has 48 days of service ahead, clearing the four-week (28-day) window Maps asks for. No validator errors either, so riders keep seeing this agency in their trip planners; warnings lower the grade here but do not remove a feed from Maps.

How this agency maps to the standards

The scorecard is a data-quality lens, not a compliance determination. Its universal references describe good GTFS and useful rider information. Useful references here are GTFS Schedule Best Practices, GTFS-Realtime Best Practices, MobilityData grading scheme, Google Transit publication guidance. Read the full standards crosswalk.

Correctness 66 / 100
GTFS Schedule best practices, checked by the MobilityData validator. MobilityData grading covers stop locations, route names, and colors. Google Transit requires a feed to pass validation for publication.
Freshness 80 / 100
GTFS Schedule best practices call for a dataset that stays current. An expired calendar can remove service from Google Transit and other rider trip planners.
Rider experience 78 / 100
GTFS Best Practices for rider-facing fields. MobilityData grading covers stop names and headsigns.
Realtime quality Not yet published
GTFS-Realtime best practices: a stable URL, high uptime, and frequent updates.

This page updates on every check. The record below does not: it is the dated file this grade came from, published at https://gtfsscorecard.org/data/artifacts/york-region-transit/2026-07-19.json and never overwritten, pinning the grade, category scores, rubric version, validator version, reader archive profile, and the scored feed's sha256 as they stood on 2026-07-19. Use it in a board packet, a regulatory filing, or a research citation instead of linking the live page, whose content will differ on your next visit.
