    Provision of Alternative Services by Transit Agencies: The Intersection of Regulation and Program
    1/20/2023 7:00:33 PM
    Transit agencies are increasingly offering an alternative service for their Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) paratransit riders. This service is typically an on-demand or same-day transportation option subsidized by a transit agency and is an alternative to the next-day service of ADA paratransit. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's pre-publication draft of TCRP Research Report 239: Provision of Alternative Services by Transit Agencies: The Intersection of Regulation and Program details h...


    Bus Operator Workforce Management: Practitioner’s Guide
    1/4/2023 3:00:40 PM
    As of 2020, nearly 50 percent of the bus-operator workforce was over 55. Evidence indicates that many younger job seekers are often not aware of the potential career opportunities and employee benefits that are available at transit agencies. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's pre-publication draft of TCRP Research Report 240: Bus Operator Workforce Management: Practitioner’s Guide provides recommendations and resources enabling transit agencies to better assess, plan, and implement their oper...


    Measuring and Managing Fare Evasion
    11/4/2022 6:00:11 PM
    Fare evasion is generally defined as a passenger using public transit without paying the required fare or possessing the required fare media or valid proof of fare payment. Fare evasion has significant implications for the financial sustainability of transit systems and must be replaced by another stable source of funding. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program  TCRP Research Report 234: Measuring and Managing Fare Evasion explores in detail the recent past and emerging future of fare enforcem...


    Improving Access and Management of Public Transit ITS Data
    10/27/2022 2:00:00 PM
    With the proliferation of automatic vehicle location, automatic passenger counters, and automatic fare collection, transit agencies are collecting increasingly granular data on service performance, ridership, customer behavior, and financial recovery. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's  TCRP Research Report 235: Improving Access and Management of Public Transit ITS Data proposes a data structure for storing data from bus and rail intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Supplemental to ...


    Racial Equity, Black America, and Public Transportation, Volume 1: A Review of Economic, Health, and Social Impacts
    10/7/2022 2:00:00 PM
    An overall objective of the transit community is to help develop an enhanced and more inclusive approach to public transportation planning and decision making. Public transportation planners have a critical role in addressing and correcting many of the problems caused by a 20th- and 21st-century transportation sector that severely impacted and, in some cases, destroyed Black communities in the building of today’s transportation systems and network. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's  TCR...


    Quantitative Procedures for Designing and Operating Ferry Services
    9/30/2022 6:00:17 PM
    Ferry transportation services play an important role in regional transportation—providing additional transit capacity to transportation networks and serving as a lifeline for many geographically-isolated communities. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's pre-publication draft of TCRP Research Report 238: Quantitative Procedures for Designing and Operating Ferry Services presents guidance for scheduled and fixed-route ferry transit services and facilities that serve passengers as well as passenge...


    Fare-Free Transit Evaluation Framework
    9/21/2022 6:00:47 PM
    Recognizing the strong recent interest throughout the United States to consider and implement fare-free transit, decision-making tools are needed to help public transit practitioners evaluate fare-free transit. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's pre-publication draft of  TCRP Research Report 237: Fare-Free Transit Evaluation Framework  presents a framework that can be used by public transit practitioners to evaluate the potential benefits, costs, and trade-offs of implementing fare-...


    The Impacts of Vehicle Automation on the Public Transportation Workforce
    6/17/2022 1:30:00 PM
    Advancements in the automation of transit vehicles will likely have significant impacts; however, the possible effects on the public-transportation workforce is largely unknown. This is due partly to the fledgling state of transit vehicle automation and partly to the significant amount of uncertainty about how and when automated transit services become more prevalent. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's TCRP Research Report 232: The Impacts of Vehicle Automation on the Public Transportation Wo...


    Strategies for Deterring Trespassing on Rail Transit and Commuter Rail Rights-of-Way, Volume 1: Guidebook
    5/27/2022 5:02:00 PM
    A great risk facing the rail transit and commuter rail industries is the continuing problem with trespassing incidents occurring on systems throughout the United States. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's TCRP Research Report 233: Strategies for Deterring Trespassing on Rail Transit and Commuter Rail Rights-of-Way, Volume 1: Guidebook provides guidance on strategies to deter trespassing on rail transit and commuter rail exclusive and semi-exclusive rights-of-way, including within station area...


    Strategies for Deterring Trespassing on Rail Transit and Commuter Rail Rights-of-Way, Volume 2: Research Overview
    5/27/2022 5:00:51 PM
    Trespassing on rail transit and commuter rail rights-of-way is a longstanding issue impacting every agency. The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's  TCRP Research Report 233: Strategies for Deterring Trespassing on Rail Transit and Commuter Rail Rights-of-Way, Volume 2: Research Overview provides guidance on strategies to deter trespassing on rail transit and commuter rail rights-of-way. This report is a supplement to  TCRP Research Report 233: Strategies for Deterring Trespassing on Rai...
