Download or read book Data Needs for Assessing Rural Transit Needs Benefits and Levels of Service written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This digest presents the results of National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Project 20-65, Task 36, Data Needs for Assessing Rural Transit Needs, Benefits, and Levels of Service. The primary objectives of this project were to (1) review the data elements currently reported in the Rural National Transit Database (NTD) and identify data elements that are needed to record pre- and post-service change information; and (2) identify potential levels of service (LOS) options that are more accurate or useful for future evaluation of rural service. The concept of LOS can be applied to many aspects of public transit services. In this report, the expression refers to measures of service availability from the passenger's perspective. Additionally, the project called for options for using the data elements and measures of LOS from other readily available data to conduct rural transit needs assessment and performance analysis. The researchers also developed draft tools to help state departments of transportation understand the effects of various service types and levels on rural communities.

This book was released on 2016-12-28 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence from the public health sector demonstrates that health care is only one of the determinants of health, which also include genes, behavior, social factors, and the built environment. These contextual elements are key to understanding why health care organizations are motivated to focus beyond their walls and to consider and respond in unprecedented ways to the social needs of patients, including transportation needs. In June 2016 the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a joint workshop to explore partnerships, data, and measurement at the intersection of the health care and transportation sectors. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
