  • Analysis of the Flat Fare Collection System Alternative

TABLE OF CONTENTS Page SUMMARY i CHAPTER 1: Introduction 1 CHAPTER 2: Description of Alternatives 3 2.1 Adopted Graduated-Fare Collection System 3 2.2 Alternative Flat-Fare Collection System 6 CHAPTER 3: Evaluation of Alternatives 11 3.1 Capital Cost 11 3.2 Annual Operating and Maintenance Cost 15 3.3 System Reliability and Patron Convenience 18 3.4 Administrative Requirements 21 3.5 Ridership and Revenue 22 3.6 Fare Equity 26 CHAPTER 4: Conclusions 33 . StIIVINARY This report presents an analysis of the feasibility of instituting a flat-fare collection system for the Metro Rail line. Both the adopted graduated-fare collec- tion system and the alternative flat-fare system are described. The alternatives are then evaluated in terms of capital cost; annual O&1V1 cost; system reliability; passenger convenience; administrative requirements; ridership and revenue; and fare equity. The results of the analysis indicate several important conclusions. Relative to the graduated-fare system, a flat-fare system would result in capital cost savings of 47 percent and O&M cost savings of 18 percent. The flat- fare system would also be significantly more reliable, provide greater convenience to the patron, and enjoy slightly reduced administrative requirements. Moreover, the flat-fare system produces greater revenues: $2.0 million additional Metro Rail revenues and $17.7 million additional total SCRTD (bus and rail) revenues. Counterbalancing these advantages, however, is the fact that the flat-fare system is less equitable than the graduated-fare system.

FRED F. ANGUS ............... 167 FRONT CO VER: The corner ofPortage and Main in Winnipeg during the 1880s, with two horsecars of the Winnipeg Street Railway. Winnipeg was the westernmost Canadian city to have horsecars, and the first routes were inaugurated in 1882. About this time, the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway set off a land boom, and it was logical that a street railway would be started in the rapidly-developing city. Compare this view with the two photographs on page 203 that show the same location. For a time in the early 1890s there were four tracks on Main street, as the new electric line coexisted with the older horsecar route for a f ew years. This painting hung in one of the offices of the Winnipeg Electric Railway, and was later acquired by the uncle of the author and presented to him in 1964. BELOW A drawing ofan open horse car on St. Denis street in Montreal in 1887. This drawing is based on the photograph that appears on page 197. Cars like this were very popular in the summer, and were used as trailers behind electric cars f or a few years after the electrification of the Montreal system.
