Notice Code Severity Total
equal_shape_distance_same_coordinates WARNING 1

equal_shape_distance_same_coordinates

Two consecutive points have equal shape_dist_traveled and the same lat/lon coordinates in shapes.txt.

When sorted by shape.shape_pt_sequence, the values for shape_dist_traveled must increase along a shape. Two consecutive points with equal values for shape_dist_traveled and the same coordinates indicate a duplicative shape point.

You can see more about this notice here.

shapeId (?) The id of the faulty shape. csvRowNumber (?) The row number from `shapes.txt`. shapeDistTraveled (?) Actual distance traveled along the shape from the first shape point to the faulty record. shapePtSequence (?) The faulty record's `shapes.shape_pt_sequence`. prevCsvRowNumber (?) The row number from `shapes.txt` of the previous shape point. prevShapeDistTraveled (?) Actual distance traveled along the shape from the first shape point to the previous shape point. prevShapePtSequence (?) The previous record's `shapes.shape_pt_sequence`.

feed_expiration_date30_days WARNING 1

feed_expiration_date30_days

Dataset should cover at least the next 30 days of service.

At any time, the GTFS dataset should cover at least the next 30 days of service, and ideally for as long as the operator is confident that the schedule will continue to be operated.

You can see more about this notice here.

csvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record. currentDate (?) Current date (YYYYMMDD format). feedEndDate (?) Feed end date (YYYYMMDD format). suggestedExpirationDate (?) Suggested expiration date (YYYYMMDD format).
2 "20251212" "20260110" "20260111"
leading_or_trailing_whitespaces WARNING 4

leading_or_trailing_whitespaces

The value in CSV file has leading or trailing whitespaces.

This notice is emitted for values protected with double quotes since whitespaces for non-protected values are trimmed automatically by CSV parser.

The validator strips whitespaces from protected values. We do not see any use case when such a whitespace may be needed. On the other hand, some real-world feeds use trailing whitespaces for some values and omit them for the others. This is causing the largest problem when a primary key and a foreign key differ just by a whitespace: it is clear that they are intended to be the same, that is why we always strip whitespaces.

filename (?) The name of the faulty file. csvRowNumber (?) The row of the faulty record. fieldName (?) Faulty record's field name. fieldValue (?) Faulty value.

route_color_contrast WARNING 1

route_color_contrast

Insufficient route color contrast.

A route's color and route_text_color should be contrasting.

You can see more about this notice here.

routeId (?) The id of the faulty record. csvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record. routeColor (?) The faulty record's HTML route color. routeTextColor (?) The faulty record's HTML route text color.
"6212" 12 "#FBD603" "#FFFFFF"
route_long_name_contains_short_name WARNING 5

route_long_name_contains_short_name

Long name should not contain short name for a single route.

In routes.txt, route_long_name should not contain the value for route_short_name, because when both are provided, they are often combined by transit applications. Note that only one of the two fields is required. If there is no short name used for a route, use route_long_name only.

Good examples:

route_short_name/route_long_name Dataset
"N"/"Judah" Muni San Fransisco
"6"/"ML King Jr Blvd" Trimet Portland Streetcar
"55"/"Boulevard Saint Laurent" STM Montreal
"1"/"Rangiora/Cashmere" Metro Christchurch

Bad examples:

route_short_name/route_long_name
"604"/"604"
"14"/"Route 14"
"2"/"Route 2: Bellows Falls In-Town"

You can see more about this notice here.

routeId (?) The id of the faulty record. csvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record. routeShortName (?) The faulty record's `route_short_name`. routeLongName (?) The faulty record's `route_long_name`.

same_name_and_description_for_route WARNING 1

same_name_and_description_for_route

Same name and description for route.

The GTFS spec defines routes.txt route_desc as:

Description of a route that provides useful, quality information. Do not simply duplicate the name of the route.

See the GTFS and GTFS Best Practices links below for more examples of how to populate the route_short_name, route_long_name, and route_desc fields.

You can see more about this notice here.

csvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record. routeId (?) The id of the faulty record. routeDesc (?) The `routes.routes_desc` of the faulty record. specifiedField (?) Either `route_short_name` or `route_long_name`.
8 "6204" "Route F" "route_long_name"
stop_without_stop_time WARNING 14

stop_without_stop_time

A stop in stops.txt is not referenced by any stop_times.stop_id.

Such stops are not used by any trip and normally do not provide user value. This notice may indicate a typo in stop_times.txt.

You can see more about this notice here.

csvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record. stopId (?) The id of the faulty stop. stopName (?) The name of the faulty stop.

trip_distance_exceeds_shape_distance_below_threshold WARNING 55

trip_distance_exceeds_shape_distance_below_threshold

The distance between the last shape point and last stop point is greater than 0 but less than the 11.1m threshold.

You can see more about this notice here.

Only the first 50 of 55 affected records are displayed below.

tripId (?) The faulty record's trip id. shapeId (?) The faulty record's shape id. maxTripDistanceTraveled (?) The faulty record's trip max distance traveled. maxShapeDistanceTraveled (?) The faulty record's shape max distance traveled. geoDistanceToShape (?) The distance in meters between the shape and the stop.
