Book The Impact of Rapid Transit on Urban Development

Download or read book The Impact of Rapid Transit on Urban Development written by W. Bruce Allen and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A very simple model has been developed which delineates the areas which receive given levels of transport cost savings as a result of a transportation improvement. It is hypothesized that a portion of these savings will be capitalized into the value of residential property. Statistical tests which control for other determinants of housing value, e.g., neighborhood characteristics, physical characteristics of the property, etc., have indeed shown a positive impact on property values, attributable to the presence of transport cost savings made available by the High Speed Line. Refining and testing of the models developed herein continues. The travel-savings model and the empirical application presented above have important policy implications. The theory clearly indicates the control variables available to policy-makers and the relative strength of these variables in shifting modal choice boundaries, station or interchange market areas, and the level of travel savings. The iso-savings line analysis should allow for improved land use planning in urban transportation corridors. There is increasing interest when evaluating the impact of proposed projects, not just in arriving at grand totals for the benefits and costs, but in identifying which social and geographic groups receive or incur these benefits and costs. The iso-savings lines provide a simple and theoretically sound basis for examining the relative impacts of a transportation improvement.

Book Trains  Buses  People

Download or read book Trains Buses People written by Christof Spieler and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the best transit cities in the US? The best Bus Rapid Transit lines? The most useless rail transit lines? The missed opportunities? In the US, the 25 largest metropolitan areas and many smaller cities have fixed guideway transit—rail or bus rapid transit. Nearly all of them are talking about expanding. Yet discussions about transit are still remarkably unsophisticated. To build good transit, the discussion needs to focus on what matters—quality of service (not the technology that delivers it), all kinds of transit riders, the role of buildings, streets and sidewalks, and, above all, getting transit in the right places. Christof Spieler has spent over a decade advocating for transit as a writer, community leader, urban planner, transit board member, and enthusiast. He strongly believes that just about anyone—regardless of training or experience—can identify what makes good transit with the right information. In the fun and accessible Trains, Buses, People: An Opinionated Atlas of US Transit, Spieler shows how cities can build successful transit. He profiles the 47 metropolitan areas in the US that have rail transit or BRT, using data, photos, and maps for easy comparison. The best and worst systems are ranked and Spieler offers analysis of how geography, politics, and history complicate transit planning. He shows how the unique circumstances of every city have resulted in very different transit systems. Using appealing visuals, Trains, Buses, People is intended for non-experts—it will help any citizen, professional, or policymaker with a vested interest evaluate a transit proposal and understand what makes transit effective. While the book is built on data, it has a strong point of view. Spieler takes an honest look at what makes good and bad transit and is not afraid to look at what went wrong. He explains broad concepts, but recognizes all of the technical, geographical, and political difficulties of building transit in the real world. In the end,Trains, Buses, People shows that it is possible with the right tools to build good transit.
