watbus is a web application to summarize and display bus stop times in a useful way. It is written to use Grand River Transit's GTFS data.

watbus's Issues

Switch to CSV model for CSV parsing in importdata.py

Improve README and documentation

Write unit tests to check data importing

I'm not 100% sure if this is possible, but I think it would be good to write unit tests to ensure the integrity of the DB after the importdata.py script has been run.
