  • I. Coordinated Public Transit
    APPENDIX I: COORDINATED PUBLIC TRANSIT — HUMAN SERVICES TRANSPORTATION PLAN Guiding investment in enhanced mobility for older adults and individuals with disabilities in the Kansas City region Executive summary A person’s ability to get anywhere they need to go at any time to fulfill the regular demands of everyday life can be referred to as mobility independence. Mobility independence is a critical, if underappreciated, aspect of quality of life. Older adults, individuals with disabilities and low-income populations all face the potential threat of losing their mobility independence for different reasons. This threatens not only their quality of life, but their employment prospects, their ability to socialize with their community, their access to adequate nutrition and healthcare services, and much more. For these reasons, local, state and federal governments, as well as nonprofit agencies and private businesses have pursued strategies to assist these populations with earning or maintaining mobility independence. Furthermore, guidance provided through the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that, among many other advancements, transit agencies provide complementary paratransit services to those with mobility limitations living within three-quarters of a mile of a fixed-route transit line. Other supplemental services have attempted to fill in gaps in that coverage over time. With so many services operating in the same areas, with roughly the same missions, it can quickly become overwhelming to determine the right option for the right individual. Additionally, a squeeze on funding opportunities has made it difficult for existing organizations to maintain or expand their services, or for new organizations to supplement the existing market.

  • 5.0 Public Transportation
    5.0 PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION A robust public transit and enhanced mobility network is essential Public transportation includes various types of multiple- to focused regional growth, an increased quality of life for all occupancy vehicle services, such as bus, streetcar, rail and residents, and a healthy environment and economy. Public transit demand-response options. offers an affordable, equitable means of transportation and an alternative to personal vehicle ownership. Public transit and enhanced mobility transportation serve many purposes for a range of constituencies — children who ride the bus to school, teens traveling to their first jobs, young adults who are pinching pennies, seniors who can no longer drive safely, people with physical or mental limitations, and those who choose to limit driving to conserve resources. With shifting demographics, the number of people who use public transit and enhanced mobility services is projected to increase.

  • Increasing the Usage of Demand-Response Transit in Rural Kansas
    INCREASING THE USAGE OF DEMAND-RESPONSE TRANSIT IN RURAL KANSAS by BRIAN CHRISTOPHER GEIGER B.S., Kansas State University, 2007 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Civil Engineering College of Engineering KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2009 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Sunanda Dissanayake DISCLAIMER The contents of this report reflect the views of the author, who is responsible for the facts and the accuracy of the information presented herein. This document is disseminated under the sponsorship of the Department of Transportation University Transportation Centers Program, in the interest of information exchange. The U.S. Government assumes no liability for the contents or use thereof. Abstract Public transportation in rural America has existed for decades. Its providers are challenged with low populations and long distances in rural areas. Many of these rural transit providers have been in existence for many years, but ridership still remains low. These providers usually operate in a demand-response format, as opposed to large cities, where busses run on fixed routes. This research was conducted to see if any type of service improvements or enhancements could be found in order to increase ridership of demand-response transit service in rural Kansas. In order to determine if ridership of public transportation in rural Kansas can be increased, customer satisfaction surveys were conducted. One survey was distributed to current riders of demand-response systems, one survey distributed to non-riders of public transportation, and the last survey given to providers to obtain basic system information throughout Kansas.
