  • PLAN 2035 Appendix D
    PLAN 2035 Appendix D Transit Investment Analysis NORTH JERSEY TRANSPORTATION PLANNING AUTHORITY This document is an appendix to Plan 2035, the Regional Transportation Plan for Northern New Jersey. The full document is available at www.NJTPA.org. Plan 2035 was prepared and published by the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority, Inc. with funding from the Federal Transit Administration and the Federal Highway Administration. The NJTPA is solely responsible for its contents. Correspondence or questions relating to this report may be addressed to: The Executive Director North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority One Newark Center, 17th Floor, Newark, NJ 07102-1982 Telephone: 973-639-8400 Fax: 973-639-1953 Web: www.njtpa.org E-mail: [email protected] Appendix D: Transit Investment Analysis Introduction The northern New Jersey transit network, consisting of rail, bus and ferry facilities, provides a fast and reliable means of moving nearly 1 million travelers each weekday. In doing so it adds a level of flexibility and redundancy to the transportation system that is matched by only a handful of other metropolitan regions across the nation. It is responsible for diverting hundreds of thousands of trips each day from the region's congested highway networks, safeguarding the region's air quality, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, providing essential travel to the disabled and those without cars and contributing to the quality of life enjoyed by the region's residents. While historically the rail system focused on serving Manhattan-bound commuters, increasingly it is providing travel options for reaching destinations within the state like the Jersey Shore, downtown Newark and Hudson River Waterfront.

    Norwegian Ministry English Summary of Transport Meld. St. 20 (2020–2021) Report to the Storting (white paper) National Transport Plan 2022–2033 Meld. St. 20 (2020–2021) Report to the Storting (white paper) National Transport Plan 2022–2033 Foreword Transport is first and foremost about people – about travelling safely and effici- ently together. In a country like Norway, with its extensive coastline, high moun- tains and long fjords, we need to connect urban and rural areas and the people who live there. We have always needed to travel and to transport goods and commodities. An efficient, environmental-friendly and safe transport system is one of the most Figure 0.1 important cornerstones of a modern soci- Knut Arild Hareide ety, and an important prerequisite for Minister of Transport value creation and welfare. Planning and building infrastructure in Norway is often both difficult and expensive. However, people must be free to live and work where they wish, and our prosperity depends on the value creation that takes place in all parts of the country. That is why we must maintain and develop a transport system that is capa- ble of connecting all parts of the country together. To succeed we must keep up with and encourage technological advances and dare to think differently. At the same time, we have to choose the solutions that give us the highest possible value for the public investments in transport projects. The Government has given transport high priority. Our invest- ments have led to shorter travel times on both rail and road, more fre- quent train departures, better traffic safety and positive urban devel- opment.

  • UNECE Tram and Metro Statistics Metadata Introduction File Structure Country Notes
    UNECE Tram and Metro Statistics Metadata Introduction This file gives detailed country notes on the UNECE tram and metro statistics dataset. These metadata describe how countries have compiled tram and metro statistics, what the data cover, and where possible how passenger numbers and passenger-km have been determined. Whether data are based on ticket sales, on-board sensors or another method may well affect the comparability of passenger numbers across systems and countries, hence it being documented here. Most of the data are at the system level, allowing comparisons across cities and systems. However, not every country could provide this, sometimes due to confidentiality reasons. In these cases, sometimes either a regional figure (e.g. the Provinces of Canada, which mix tram and metro figures with bus and ferry numbers) or a national figure (e.g. Czechia trams, which excludes the Prague tram system) have been given to maximise the utility of the dataset. File Structure The disseminated file is structured into seven different columns, as follows: Countrycode: These are United Nations standard country codes for statistical use, based on M49. The codes together with the country names, region and other information are given here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/methodology/m49/overview/ (and can be downloaded as a CSV directly here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/methodology/m49/overview/#). City: This column gives the name of the city or region where the metro or tram system operates. In many cases, this is sufficient to identify the system. Type: This describes the type of transport system. Most values are either Tram or Metro.
