This book was released on 2008 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Park-and-ride provided metro regions with a mechanism to reduce commute-generated vehicle-miles traveled, by capturing vehicles in or near their home communities and allowing their drivers to travel to their destinations via transit. The hypothesis underlying this study is that the loss of commuter parking to transit-oriented development involves a tradeoff of one set of benefits (and costs) for another. By assessing the performance of existing park-and-ride facilities, and comparing the associated costs and benefits with those we might expect from transit-oriented development, decision-makers might make land-use decisions that more effectively advance local and regional goals. To that end, this study sets up a methodology to allow for an "apples-to-apples" comparison of the impacts of park-and-ride and transit-oriented development on regional vehicle-miles traveled. This methodology is flexible in its methods and its application, so that it may be adapted to a range of modeling tools and techniques, available data, and regional contexts. Data collected from commuter rail stations in the Boston metro region suggests that park-and-ride performance is more a factor of station distance from commuters' destinations than of the position of a station relative to others on the transit line. This result indicates that redevelopment of park-and-ride facilities in the Boston metro region should focus on cost-inefficient facilities in communities nearer to the CBD, where the benefits of transit-oriented development are also often greater.

Book excerpt: Transportation has many political, economic, and social facets that have led to a complicated history of private companies and public agencies working with, for, and sometimes against each other in Los Angeles. In this paper comparative analysis is used to evaluate the transit services provided by the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT). LADOT's DASH and Commuter Express bus services compare favorably to the aggregate of all transit agencies in the United States across a variety of performance measures. LADOT's demand responsive service, in the form of the Cityride program, does not compare as favorably. As a public agency managing private transit providers, LADOT has internal evaluation processes and measurements used to eliminate, expand, or alter service. This research relies heavily on comparing existing data sets, performance measures, reports, and a broad combination of other historical and contextual information to provide a robust understanding of a modern public transit agency and the corresponding geographical transportation network. Using the data and analysis on fixed-route bus services, the development of a multi-modal transportation network company focused on specific demographics of potential riders is recommended. Finally, a measure that aims to quantify and compare the cost and time to an individual person to travel a mile by a given mode of transportation is introduced and developed. Overall this paper aims to develop an understanding of contracted transportation, as well as the broader transportation network of Los Angeles.
