Book Synopsis Use of Small Buses for Fixed Route Service in Small Urban Areas by : Richard Neal Robertson
Download or read book Use of Small Buses for Fixed Route Service in Small Urban Areas written by Richard Neal Robertson and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The deteriorating financial conditions and service levels of both public and private transit systems in Virginia's small urban areas have led the operators of these systems to question the desirability of continuing to operate them in their present forms. With many 40-50 passenger vehicles being operated at less than half capacity for extended periods of time, one of the more pressing questions before these transit operators is that of whether they should replace all or part of their fleets with smaller vehicles to achieve more efficient operations and services. Very little meaningful guidance in this regard existed in the transportation literature. Therefore, the research reported here was undertaken to determine the feasibility of using small buses for fixed route transit service in small urban areas. The report identifies many characteristics of small vehicles and relates the experiences of several small bus operations. Also, the potential uses of small buses and fixed route service in small cities are presented. The report concludes that there is presently no single vehicle appropriate for all applications of bus transportation in small urban areas as the requirements vary from one city to another according to such factors as demand in service levels, economic conditions, management arrangement, geography, and weather. In view of the findings presented in the report, it has been recommended that the officials contemplating the establishment of a small bus system conduct detailed investigations to determine how well small vehicles will fulfill their needs.

Download or read book Curb Rights written by Daniel B. Klein and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transit services in the United States are in trouble. Ridership has dwindled, productivity has declined, and operating deficits have widened. The traditional approaches to running transit systems—government planning or operation of bus and rail services, government subsidization of private operations, heavy regulation of all transit modes—have failed, and there is little hope of their ever succeeding under current practices. But public transportation cannot simply be abandoned. Can it, then, be made more self-supporting and efficient? The authors of this book say it's time to rethink the fundamental structure of transit policy. The book focuses on street-based transit—buses, shuttles, and jitneys. (While street-based transit in the U.S. today usually means bus service, in other times and places streets have also been served by smaller vehicles called jitneys that follow a route but not a schedule.) The authors examine a variety of transit services: jitney services from America's past, illegal jitneys today, airport shuttle van services, bus deregulation in Great Britain, and jitney services in less developed countries. The authors propose that urban transit be brought into the fold of market activity by establishing property rights not only in vehicles, but also in curb zones and transit stops. Market competition and entrepreneurship would depend on a foundation of what they call "curb rights." By creating exclusive and transferable curb rights (to bus stops and other pickup points) leased by auction, the authors contend that American cities can have the best of both kinds of markets—scheduled (and unsubsidized) bus service and unscheduled but faster and more flexible jitneys. They maintain that a carefully planned transit system based on property rights would rid the transit market of inefficient government production and overregulation. It would also avoid the problems of a lawless market—cutthroat competition, schedule jockeying, and even curbside conflict among rival operators. Entrepreneurs would be able to introduce ever better service, revise schedules and route structures, establish connections among transit providers, and use new pricing strategies. And travelers would find public transit more attractive than they do now. Once the system of curb rights is sensibly implemented, the authors conclude, the market process will take over. Then the invisible hand can do in transit what it does so well in other parts of the economy.
