  • Improving Bus Service in New York a Thesis Presented to The
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Columbia University Academic Commons Improving Bus Service in New York A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of Architecture and Planning COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY In Partial Fulfillment Of the requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Urban Planning By Charles Romanow May 2018 Abstract New York City’s transportation system is in a state of disarray. City street are clogged with taxi’s and for-hire vehicles, subway platforms are packed with straphangers waiting for delayed trains and buses barely travel faster than pedestrians. The bureaucracy of City and State government in the region causes piecemeal improvements which do not keep up with the state of disrepair. Bus service is particularly poor, moving at rates incomparable with the rest of the country. New York has recently made successful efforts at improving bus speeds, but only so much can be done amidst a city of gridlock. Bus systems around the world faced similar challenges and successfully implemented improvements. A toolbox of near-immediate and long- term options are at New York’s disposal dealing directly with bus service as well indirect causes of poor bus service. The failing subway system has prompted public discussion concerning bus service. A significant cause of poor service in New York is congestion. A number of measures are capable of improving congestion and consequently, bus service. Due to the city’s limited capacity at implementing short-term solutions, the most highly problematic routes should receive priority. Routes with slow speeds, high rates of bunching and high ridership are concentrated in Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn which also cater to the most subway riders.

  • A Pilot Study on High Intensity Functional Training in an Adaptive Population
    A pilot study on high intensity functional training in an adaptive population by Victor Andrews B.S., Kansas State University, 2016 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF PUBLIC HEALTH Department of Kinesiology College of Health and Human Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2019 Approved by: Major Professor Katie Heinrich Copyright © Victor Andrews 2019. Abstract Introduction: There are currently more than 56 million adults in the U.S. living with a disability that may affect activities of daily living and quality of life (QoL). Disabilities and chronic conditions may place impairments that limit participation in physical activity due to needing adaptations in order to be physically active. Physical activity is helpful in the prevention of secondary health conditions for those with an adaptive need. This pilot study investigated the effectiveness of adaptive high intensity function training (HIFT) for improving self-reported activity limitations and participation restrictions, QoL, sport/exercise beliefs, physical activity self-efficacy and enjoyment, and measured basic human movements (BHM). Methods: A two site pilot study was conducted using a single condition pre-test posttest design to provide an 8- week adaptive HIFT intervention to those with an adaptive need (e.g., cane, wheelchair). Eight participants (62.5% male, 37.5% White, 37.5% Black, 25% Hispanic/Latino, 100% with some college education or more) completed 2-3, 60-minute exercise sessions per week of high intensity, low volume workouts with trainers certified in adaptive HIFT. Participants completed online surveys including the World Health Organization QoL-BREF, the outpatient physical therapy improvement in movement assessment log (OPTIMAL), sport and exercise ability, and physical activity self-efficacy and enjoyment.

In the simplest terms, Millennials (which Pew Research defines as Americans born from 1982-2000, and called Generation Y by some) are driving less than older motorists did when they came of age--and when they do get behind the wheel, they are generally in smaller, more fuel-efficient cars. This, in turn, has curbed revenues from the federal gasoline tax, the primary source of funding for the Federal Highway Trust Fund, which is the backbone of the country's surface transportation infrastructure. This drop in funds available to construct and repair the country's infrastructure could, in Standard & Poor's Ratings Services' view, weigh on growth prospects for U.S.
