Regionalizing Public Transportation Services
Author: Thomas J. Cook
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Rural transit
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
There are two problems to be addressed in this study, both involving the integration of public transit systems on the regional level. The first problem is the integration of single-county rural transit systems into multi-county regional transit systems. The second problem is the integration of urban fixed-route/complementary paratransit systems and county demand responsive transit systems. This study will identify barriers to integration of transit systems at the regional level, evaluate best practices from North Carolina and other states, describe incentives to encourage regional integration of transit systems, and develop recommendations for policy and legislative changes to facilitate the implementation of regional transit systems.

Route Analysis
Author: Northwest Iowa Planning and Development Commission
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Local transit
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
This study examines the contractual routes operated by the Region 3 Regional Transit Authority (RTA) in the counties of Buena Vista, Clay, Dickinson, and O'Brien. Criteria such as vehicle service hours, operating costs and vehicle miles are used to examine the performance of the system. Performance indicators calculated are used to compare route operations by county. Possibilities for improvement in each of the four county systems are discussed.

The Geography of Transport Systems
Author: Jean-Paul Rodrigue
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136777326
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
Mobility is fundamental to economic and social activities such as commuting, manufacturing, or supplying energy. Each movement has an origin, a potential set of intermediate locations, a destination, and a nature which is linked with geographical attributes. Transport systems composed of infrastructures, modes and terminals are so embedded in the socio-economic life of individuals, institutions and corporations that they are often invisible to the consumer. This is paradoxical as the perceived invisibility of transportation is derived from its efficiency. Understanding how mobility is linked with geography is main the purpose of this book. The third edition of The Geography of Transport Systems has been revised and updated to provide an overview of the spatial aspects of transportation. This text provides greater discussion of security, energy, green logistics, as well as new and updated case studies, a revised content structure, and new figures. Each chapter covers a specific conceptual dimension including networks, modes, terminals, freight transportation, urban transportation and environmental impacts. A final chapter contains core methodologies linked with transport geography such as accessibility, spatial interactions, graph theory and Geographic Information Systems for transportation (GIS-T). This book provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field, with a broad overview of its concepts, methods, and areas of application. The accompanying website for this text contains a useful additional material, including digital maps, PowerPoint slides, databases, and links to further reading and websites. The website can be accessed at: http://people.hofstra.edu/geotrans This text is an essential resource for undergraduates studying transport geography, as well as those interest in economic and urban geography, transport planning and engineering.

Fourth Regional Plan
Author: Regional Plan Association
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781642830705
Category : Land use
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In the past two decades, the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut region has prospered into one of the world's leading economies. But the benefits of this economic resurgence have been uneven, leaving many behind and resulting in problems that could curtail the region's future prosperity. The Regional Plan Association's Fourth Regional Plan is an ambitious assessment that reviews the most persistent problems and provides a guide to correcting them. Topics discussed include a crisis of housing affordability, overburdened and deteriorating infrastructure, vulnerability to climate change, and a pervasive distrust in government. The plan offers solutions including how to bring nearly two million jobs to the region by 2040, while promoting shared prosperity, well-being and sustainability across the region. The Fourth Regional Plan continues the Regional Plan Association's tradition of providing concrete ideas for improving the tri-state region. Highlights include radically restructuring the MTA and Port Authority to support creation of a modernized and expanded subway and regional rail network; significantly increasing the availability of housing; and expanding the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative to fund climate change initiatives. This highly visual, comprehensive plan will help elected officials, policymakers, and advocates guide any region to a more equitable, sustainable, healthy, and prosperous future.
