Ab lffOCf Congestion in the air and highway system in the United States continues to worsen. By the year 2005, the cost of congestion will rise to over $60 billion annually. High speed ground transportation, which can act as an alternative and complements air and highway travel, may help to relieve these congested modes. This study examines the feasibility of a regional high speed magnetic levitation (MAGLEV) system connecting the Greater Pittsburgh airport with strategic stops between the Midwest and the East Coast. A suburban corrmuter system, which operates on the same lines as the regional system, is also investigated. The first link of the regional and suburban MAGLEV system consists of a demonstration line connecting the Greater Pittsburgh International Airport with downtown Pittsburgh. This study considers the economic value of such a system from the aspects of transportation, manufacturing and economic development. The study concludes that an investment of $41 billion over the next 30 years would be required to build a regional MAGLEV system, cover its operating cost and produce enough additional transportation revenue to pay back part of this investment in the private sector financial markets. A substantial portion of this investment must come from the public sector. The additional economic activity generated by this investment would be over $78 billion. Over 675,000 person-years of work would be created by such a venture. 17 .

Supporting infrastructure / 30 Appendix 2. Capital cost components / 32 iv Public cycle sharing systems: A planning toolkit for Indian cities Foreword The Ministry of Urban Development is committed to helping cities develop high quality transport systems that offer sustainable mobility options for their residents. These systems should reflect the spirit of India’s National Urban Transport Policy, which emphasises the importance of moving people, not vehicles. Public cycle sharing can play a key role in improving last-mile connectivity as well as modal share of cycling besides raising the image of cycling in Indian cities. Cycling is green and healthy, and it reduces the burden on our strained road networks. The public bicycling schemes that are popular in western countries are a relatively new concept in India. In the last few years, several Indian cities have shown interest with setting up such systems. The Ministry of Urban Development recognises that non-motorised modes of transport, like cycling, are an important part of making urban transport more sustainable. To launch the National Public Bicycle Scheme and to build capacity for the implementation and operation of cycle sharing systems, the first consultation meeting held last year received overwhelming support and commendation.

  • ADA Paratransit Riders Guide August 2016
    SACRAMENTO REGIONAL TRANSIT DISTRICT AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT (ADA) RIDER'S GUIDE WELCOME ADA paratransit service is door-to-door, shared-ride transportation for individuals who are unable to use the Sacramento Regional Transit District's (RT) bus and light rail system (also referred to as fixed-route), either all of the time or some of the time, because of a disabling condition. This guide is designed to help you understand Americans with Disabilities (ADA) paratransit service and your responsibilities while using it. GENERAL INFORMATION The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 requires all public transportation agencies like RT to provide specialized transportation that is comparable to the public transit bus service for individuals who are unable, due to a disability, ride fixed-route public transit. Service is available on a pre-arranged basis for any trip purpose within RT’s designated service area. If you feel that you may be eligible for ADA paratransit service, you must apply through RT’s Accessible Services department and be found eligible for the service according to ADA guidelines. Accessible Formats This ADA service Rider's Guide is available in large print, Braille, Spanish and on CD and audio tape, by calling 916-557-4685 or TDD 916-557-4686 (for hearing impaired). It is also available online at www.sacrt.com. Recertification of Eligibility RT recertifies registered clients every three to five years. A person’s ADA paratransit eligibility letter will indicate his/her ADA paratransit service eligibility expiration date. ADA Paratransit Service for Visitors A "Visitor" is an individual with a disability who does not reside in RT’s service area.

If current population trends continue – by the year 2050, 2 to 3 billion cars may be on the world’s roads, compared with 800 million cars today – and emissions are expected to have increased by 300% percent. • Also by 2050, if current migratory trends continue, some 70% of humanity is likely to be living in cities. Besides the potential cultural benefits of city living, the likely ecological and economic benefits of more compact development are vast, and make great sense for a future of growing populations and scarcer resources. As densities of development are increased, significant savings per dwelling unit can be realized in the costs of land, utilities, construction materials, in the energy needed for space heating and cooling, and in the fuel, raw materials, and land consumed for transportation – not to mention, in the vital preservation of watersheds.
