Download or read book Developing Enhancing and Sustaining Tribal Transit Services written by Albert T. Stoddard and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2012 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an overview of the tribal transit planning process and detailed guidance about the various steps for planning and implementing a tribal transit system. The steps that are described may be used for planning a new transit system, enhancing an existing service, or taking action to sustain services. While the guidebook is primarily aimed at tribal transit planners, it will also be of interest to tribal transportation planners and liaisons at all levels of government. In the research effort, data were collected from 67 tribes during Phase 1 and more detailed information was collected from 48 tribes during Phase 2. Fifteen tribes were visited for the development of case studies. Data were collected regarding the type of transit services, the size and scope of the transit programs, and funding approaches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transportation Engineering: Theory, Practice and Modeling, Second Edition presents comprehensive information related to traffic engineering and control, transportation planning and evaluation of transportation alternatives. The book systematically deals with almost the entire transportation engineering area, offering various techniques related to transportation modeling, transportation planning, and traffic control. It also shows readers how to use models and methods when predicting travel and freight transportation demand, how to analyze existing transportation networks, how to plan for new networks, and how to develop traffic control tactics and strategies. New topics addressed include alternative Intersections, alternative interchanges and individual/private transportation. Readers will also learn how to utilize a range of engineering concepts and methods to make future transportation systems safer, more cost-effective, and "greener". Providing a broad view of transportation engineering, including transport infrastructure, control methods and analysis techniques, this new edition is for postgraduates in transportation and professionals needing to keep up-to-date with the latest theories and models. Covers all forms of transportation engineering, including air, rail, road and public transit modes Examines different transportation modes and how to make them sustainable Features a new chapter covering the reliability, resilience, robustness and vulnerability of transportation systems

Download or read book Workbook for Estimating Demand for Rural Passenger Transportation written by SG Associates and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report will be of interest to agencies engaged in planning, operating, or funding passenger transportation services in rural areas. The objectives were to evaluate current methods used to forecast rural passenger transportation demand and to develop improved methods. The materials presented in this Workbook describe the types of information required to develop estimates of passenger transportation demand and step-by-step instructions, with examples and computation forms, for developing the demand estimates. For the most part, the data--related to social service program enrollment, demographic characteristics of the service area, and the quantity of service available--should be relatively easy to obtain. U.S. Census reports, county agencies, and transportation providers will be the best sources. For data that may not be readily available, alternative estimation methods are provided.

Download or read book Effective Approaches to Meeting Rural Intercity Bus Transportation Needs written by KFH Group and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2002 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents results of research conducted under Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Project B-21, "Effective Approaches to Meeting Rural Intercity Bus Transportation Needs." The project identified strategies for initiating, preserving, and enhancing effective rural intercity bus transportation. To identify recent projects and to identify barriers or issues affecting implementation, the research effort included surveys of state rural transit program managers, state rail program managers, and intercity bus carriers. The report includes three parts. Part I contains a review of recent developments affecting the intercity bus industry, an overview of potential funding sources, and a review of barriers to implementation of rural intercity projects. Part II provides strategies for rural intercity service improvements, including methods of identifying intercity carriers and services, planning, program development, operating assistance, capital assistance, marketing assistance, and combining approaches. Each strategy is described, and implementation examples are presented. Part III presents 50 project descriptions based on additional survey interviews with project contacts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 192 page report describes the experiences of the Rural Connection Program (RCP), an attempt to link existing rural public transportation services with those of intercity carriers. The study includes data gathered from 36 of the rural systems participating in the program, and detailed case studies of four systems among these. The RCP has not proven to be a big generator of revenue for the participating systems, and only five systems reported more than 150 riders over the course of the program. There is some evidence that local resources and expertise for marketing may be particular limiting factors on the arrangements. The report should be especially interesting to operators of rural transportation services.
