  • Explaining MBTA Commuter Rail Ridership METHODS RIDERSHIP
    TAKING THE TRAIN? Explaining MBTA Commuter Rail Ridership INTRODUCTION RIDERSHIP BY STATION RESULTS The MBTA Commuter Rail provides service from suburbs in the Boston Metro Area to Boston area stations, with terminal Commuter Rail Variables stations at North Station and South Station. While using commuter rail may be faster, particularly at rush hour, than using a Distance to Boston, distance to rapid transit, price of commuter rail, commuter rail time, transit time, and drive time are all personal vehicle or other transit alternatives, people still choose not to use the Commuter Rail, as can be demonstrated by the highly correlated. This makes sense as they all essentially measure distance to Boston in dollars, minutes and miles. high volume of people driving at rush hour. For the commuter rail variables analysis, trains per weekday (standardized beta=.536, p=.000), drive time at 8AM This study seeks to understand the personal vehicle and public transit alternatives to the MBTA Commuter Rail at each stop (standardized beta=.385, p=.000), peak on time performance (standardized beta=-.206, p=.009) and the terminal station to understand what options people have when deciding to use the Commuter Rail over another mode and what characteristics (p=.001) were found to be significant. Interestingly, all variables calculated for the area a half mile from commuter rail sta- tions (population, jobs and median income) were not significant. of the alternatives may inspire people to choose them over Commuter Rail. Understanding what transit and driving alterna- tives are like at each Commuter Rail stop may offer insight into why people are choosing or not choosing Commuter Rail for Transit Variables their trips to Boston, and how to encourage ridership.

  • Special Events and Tourism Services
    Transit Strategies SEASONAL AND SPECIAL EVENT SERVICE Public transit, and transportation in general, are often planned to serve trips that are made day- in and day-out. However, some trips are made only seasonally, and others are made to and from special events – for example, WaterFire in Providence and the Newport Jazz Festival. Seasonal and special event transit services serve these types of trips, so as to: Mitigate traffic and parking congestion Provide transportation choices that do not require use of a car Provide access for those who don’t own cars Support the local economy by providing services that encourage tourism RIPTA Beach Bus Ad Types of Services Public transit can be expanded to provide service for different types of events and recreational needs, through a variety of modes including buses, shuttles, trains, and ferries. Seasonal Destinations: At many seasonal destinations, such as Rhode Island’s beaches, peak season travel volumes are very high during the peak season but very low during the off-season. Seasonal service provides service when demand is high but not at other times. At other seasonal destinations, such as Newport, there is demand for transit year-round, but demand is much higher in the summer due to an influx of visitors, summer residents, and summer workers. Sporting and Cultural Events: Sporting and cultural events draw large crowds that create traffic and parking issues. Special event service is designed to serve specific events that draw large numbers of attendees. The special event service can be new service or more frequent service on existing routes. Transit Strategies | 1 Year-Round Tourism Services: Agencies can run shuttles or services targeted at tourists year-round, decreasing the need to rent cars while travelling.

    2017-2021 Capital Investment Plan Letter from the Secretary & CEO On behalf of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) and the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), I am pleased to present the 2017-2021 Capital Investment Plan (CIP). Shaped by careful planning and prioritization work as well as by public participation and comment, this plan represents a significant and sustained investment in the transportation infrastructure that serves residents and businesses across the Commonwealth. And it reflects a transformative departure from past CIPs as MassDOT and the MBTA work to reinvent capital planning for the Commonwealth’s statewide, multi-modal transportation system. This CIP contains a portfolio of strategic investments organized into three priority areas of descending importance: system reliability, asset modernization, and capacity expansion. These priorities form the foundation of not only this plan, but of a vision for MassDOT and the MBTA where all Massachusetts residents and businesses have access to safe and reliable transportation options. For the first time, formal evaluation and scoring processes were used in selecting which transportation investments to propose for construction over the next five years, with projects prioritized based on their ability to efficiently meet the strategic goals of the MassDOT agencies. The result is a higher level of confidence that capital resources are going to the most beneficial and cost-effective projects. The ultimate goal is for the Commonwealth to have a truly integrated and diversified transportation investment portfolio, not just a “capital plan.” Although the full realization of this reprioritization of capital investment will be an ongoing process and will evolve through several CIP cycles, this 2017-2021 Plan represents a major step closer to true performance-based capital planning.
