Repair

How to fix it

  1. 1

    Compare the reported service window with the next confirmed timetable, including trips and both calendar files.

  2. 2

    Publish the missing upcoming service and align feed metadata with it. Extending feed_end_date alone does not extend trip coverage.

  3. 3
    Check the result

    After a repair, rebuild the archive and validate it again. Confirm that the affected records are correct and that no new related notices appeared. A reviewed warning or informational notice may remain when it describes intentional, supported data.
