  • Railway Age Return of Transit Article 10-13-20
    Transit, Six Months After COVID-19: A Progress Report Written by David Peter Alan, Contributing Editor Transit is fighting its way back, after devastating decreases in ridership and revenue last spring, which necessitated severe service reductions on many lines and throughout many systems. Today, many of those systems are increasing service, both because many of the remaining riders need it, and in the hope that riders from the pre-COVID era will come back. Offices are re-opening slowly and carefully in some transit-rich cities, and many venues that historically attracted tourists (even if only for a day trip) are still shut down. Wherever it is located, transit must fight a protracted battle to remain relevant and regain some of the ground it captured during the past several decades, and then lost during the past several months. In this report, we will look at how transit providers in the US and Canada are doing, especially with respect to the amount of service they are offering. Some providers are back to offering the level of service that they offered before the virus hit. Others still offer reduced service, while some lines are still shut down completely. How is your local transit provider doing these days? Read on and find out. The Northeast: Where there is still plenty of transit, but not plenty of money to run it The Northeast is the home of three of the nation’s legacy rail systems (Boston, the New York area, and Philadelphia), a number of newer rail lines and systems, and Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor (NEC) to connect most of them.

  • Characteristics of Bus Rapid Transit
    Land Use & Property Value Impacts of BRT Victoria Perk National Bus Rapid Transit Institute Center for Urban Transportation Research University of South Florida 5th National Bus Rapid Transit Conference August 20-22, 2012 ─ Las Vegas, Nevada Outline 5th Nat’l BRT Conference • Background • Hypothesis & Methods • Research Results Land Use Impacts of BRT • Can bus rapid transit (BRT) impact surrounding land uses and property values in a similar way as light rail transit (LRT)? • Issue of permanence of services & facilities Previous Work • Before 2009, no recent quantitative modeling studies on property value impacts of BRT in the U.S. • Previous studies address impacts of rail modes on property values – Isolate effect of distance from transit (either right-of- way, stations, or both) – Typical results find positive impacts on property values from nearby rail transit, but magnitudes are relatively small Hypothesis & Method • Hoped to find statistically significant, positive impacts on surrounding property values from BRT, with magnitudes approaching those found for rail transit modes. • Estimate impacts of BRT on surrounding property values using hedonic regression models – Estimate the variation in property values due to proximity to BRT stations – Isolate the effect of distance to nearest BRT station from all other (measurable) factors that determine property values Pittsburgh Busways • South Busway opened in 1977 – Oldest busway in the U.S. – 4.3 miles, shares dual-use tunnel with subway • East Busway opened in 1983 – 6.8 miles, built on
