RIDERSHIP Another frequently used measure of ridership is total passengers (reported on The number of riders carried has Table 21). It includes originating always been one of the most frequently passengers and transfers. Although this used transit statistics. It is used count is not as meaningful as originating primarily as a measure of mobility since passengers, it is often used for the length of a trip is not taken into convenience. Drivers who record account. Many public authorities use passengers cannot determine whether ridership as a substitute for profit as a riders who use passes or senior citizen bottom line index of the overall success identification card are continuing a trip of a system. Thus ridership serves as a (transferring) or just starting their general measure of the acceptance and journey. Therefore, all such rides are utilization of transit service by the treated as individual trips, whether they community. Total statewide ridership are linked or not. was up 1.5% in 2004-05. SEPTA's annual ridership increased 1.5%, PAAC Annual passenger miles (reported on ridership increased 1.5% and Class 3 Table 24) are the total number of miles system ridership collectively increased traveled by all passengers using the 2.0 percent. system. It is calculated by multiplying total passengers by average trip length. There are three basic ridership This statistic is a load factor, and is used measures. One calculation, fare paying to take into account the difference passengers, does not include free rides between long haul and short haul and transfers. A better measure, service. This refinement enables one to originating passengers (reported on better compare different modes of Table 22), recognizes that various transportation. Table 24 also reports the subsidy programs, such as the state's systemwide average trip length. Free Transit Program for Senior Citizens, partially reimburse the system for these so-called non-fare rides; VEHICLE HOURS/MILES therefore they are counted along with fare paying riders. Only transfers are Total vehicle hours/miles are the excluded as they do not represent hours/miles a vehicle travels while in separate person trips but are just a revenue service plus deadhead continuation of the original trip. Many miles/hours.

Table 33 shows these average originating passengers, passenger miles, values for bus operations in the total vehicle hours, and total vehicle Commonwealth. The revenue per total miles. This information (for fixed route vehicle mile is an indicator of the service only) can be found on tables 31 earning ability of the transit system. It through 34. reflects demand for, and quality of service, as well as fare level. Average The annual operating expense per values for bus systems in Pennsylvania passenger mile is an indicator of the unit are shown in table 34. cost of providing service. An important aspect of this indicator is that it Other useful performance indicators facilitates comparisons between short are derived by dividing originating haul and long haul services. Likewise, passengers and passenger miles by total revenue per passenger mile can also be vehicle hours or total vehicle miles. used as a measure of profitability and in This information is found on tables 35 fixing tariffs for zone systems.

In FY 1970s and financial assistance in support of 1992-93, Federal funding became available intercity bus service since 1977. Many of to this program for the first time. For the currently subsidized rural transit systems operating assistance, the combined evolved from Section 147 Demonstration Commonwealth/Federal share may not projects authorized under the Federal-Aid- exceed 75% of the total project deficit. The Highway Act of 1973. In 1976, the remaining unfunded portion of the deficit is Pennsylvania legislature enacted the the “local match” required for this program.
