Neighborhood sweeps and source corrections remain ambiguous; map has two parts.

A weighted assessment of the research supporting this unverified route reference. It is not a probability that a bus runs today, a service guarantee, or a measure of timetable accuracy.

Why this score?

Historical source clarity5 / 20
Undefined repeated neighborhood sweeps, a mismatched start/finish and substantive street corrections leave the full itinerary highly uncertain.
Mapped extent completeness10 / 20
Main corridors are present, but neither neighborhood sweep nor full mall/depot access has an established extent.
Geometry consistency10 / 20
Two disconnected parts and one sequence break remain. Supported local connector candidates do not establish whole-route continuity.
Recent direct field evidence0 / 20
No completed, reviewed ride record for this route is attached to the research baseline. Historical descriptions, map edits and unreviewed reports do not establish a currently observed full journey.
Independent field corroboration0 / 20
No accepted independent check corroborates a dated route-specific field record in this baseline. Reuse of the historical official description is not independent observation.

What still needs checking

Neither return-to-Yellow-Elder instruction supplies a complete path.
Start at Town Centre Mall does not include its Graham access or final depot return.
Graham Avenue needs the bounded Graham Drive candidate.
East Hill/Mackey needs the attributed Peck/Market candidate instead of a literal jump.
