Book excerpt: Incremental changes in fare policy can have substantial and long-term impacts on transit ridership and revenue, but they are often driven by near-term revenue needs and determined within short time frames with limited analysis. This thesis proposes a procedural framework to organize analysis of incremental fare changes, linking exploration of current pricing strategies to estimation of behavioral parameters and modeling of fare change scenarios. Within this framework, empirical case studies are presented at two of the five largest transit agencies in the U.S. – the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) and the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA). These agencies have increased the price of passes relative to pay-per-use fares in recent years, motivating three particular applications that make extensive use of automated fare collection (AFC) data: 1) differentiating employer-based, pre-tax, automatically-renewing pass sales from other pass sales, 2) estimating cost sensitivity of both ridership frequency and fare product choice using only recent experience at a single agency, and 3) incorporating fare product choice in a traditional elasticity spreadsheet model to predict impacts of fare change scenarios. Passes sold through employer programs and online are found to have lower use than other passes, contributing substantially to revenue while increasing ridership; expanding these programs or extending tax benefits to all transit commuters could further increase revenue and ridership. Individual-level AFC data are used to estimate fare-related behavioral parameters: resulting MBTA elasticity estimates of -0.7 for pay-per-use and -0.5 for employer-based passes are higher than current agency assumptions of -0.25 and -0.15, use of a CTA 30-day or 7-day pass appears to boost a customer’s ridership by up to 11% or 21% (respectively), and a CTA product choice model is estimated without reliance on stated preference data. A CTA fare model combining product choice and elasticities predicts substantial switching between fare products when pass multiples are changed, and a simplified model illustrates that passes should be priced below revenue maximization to capture low-cost gains in ridership. The procedural framework in this thesis applies to all transit agencies, and the empirical applications are relevant to agencies that collect AFC data and offer multiple payment structures.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this synthesis was to document the past and current experiences of public transit agencies that have planned, implemented, and operated fare-free transit systems. The report concentrates on public transit agencies that are either direct recipients or sub-recipients of federal transit grants and provide fare-free service to everyone in their service area on every mode they provide. The report will be of interest to transit managers and staffs, small urban and rural areas, university, and resort communities, as well as stakeholders and policy makers at all levels who would be interested in knowing the social benefits and macro impacts of providing affordable mobility through fare-free public transit. A review of the relevant literature was conducted for this effort. Reports provide statistics on changes in levels of ridership associated with fare-free service. White papers or agency reports identified by the topic panel or discovered through interviews with fare-free transit managers were also reviewed. Through topic panel input, Internet searches, listserv communications, and APTA and TRB sources, the first comprehensive listing of public transit agencies that provide fare-free service in the United States was identified. A selected survey of these identified public transit agencies yielded an 82% response rate (32/39). The report offers a look at policy and administrative issues through survey responses. Five case studies, achieved through interviews, represent the three types of communities that were found to be most likely to adopt a fare-free policy: rural and small urban, university dominated, and resort communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the effects of current trends (e.g., demographic, economic, social, land use, and transport policy) and trends expected over the next 15 years on current and future transit markets. Although many of these trends are not favorable to public transit, a number are identified that provide opportunities for maintaining current transit markets and creating new, expanded, or different transit markets. The report identifies 40 transit service concepts that appear to offer the most effective means of adjusting to these societal trends.
