Unless of course MARTA were to introduce fast trains not stopping everywhere. 3 None No. 1/14/2013 11:52 AM 4 Pitts Pitts 1/11/2013 10:55 PM 5 Old Milton Windward Old Milton and Windward 1/11/2013 7:16 AM 6 Pitts Mansell Old Milton Eliminate Pitts, Mansell and Old Milton. Unneccessary. Save our money! 1/11/2013 6:52 AM 7 Pitts Maybe Pitts? 1/11/2013 5:45 AM 8 Mansell North Point Northpoint Mall or Mansell. I would think the most logical location is the park and ride 1/10/2013 7:28 PM at Mansell from a cost standpoint. 9 Holcomb Bridge Holcomb Bridge cuz it is already too congested. 1/10/2013 7:57 AM 10 Mansell Mansell due to its proximity to North Point 1/10/2013 7:52 AM 11 Pitts Pitts? 1/10/2013 7:24 AM 12 North Point Old Milton The access points between Mansell Road and Windward Parkway seem 1/10/2013 6:24 AM excessive. All of these locations are easy to get to and within minutes of each other. I think the Mansell Road location could be eliminated with the location of Northpoint Mall. Old Milton Parkway, and Windward parkway. I would have suggest Old Milton as well but understand that Gwinnett College is building a campus on the south side of Milton and significant retail on the north. 13 None No 1/6/2013 1:19 PM 14 None None 1/3/2013 12:05 PM 15 Pitts Pitts 12/26/2012 1:37 PM 16 None No 12/25/2012 12:48 AM 17 Pitts Pitts 12/24/2012 6:53 PM 18 None While not all seem immediately useful, I am sure they will be very useful in the future; might as well 12/20/2012 1:25 PM plan for it now and be proactive rather than reactive. 19 Holcomb Bridge Roswell is diligently trying to clean up the area. The proposed stop at Holcomb Bridge 12/18/2012 6:35 AM would be right in the middle of a failing shopping area. The only thing this access point would facilitate is selling of that land at extremely reduced rates in order for the current land owner to step away. The lower prices for the land and need for improvement will most likely allow for the development of low housing and more apartments. We do not need this in Roswell. 20 None no 12/18/2012 6:09 AM 21 Mansell Drop Mansell, go from Holcomb Bridge to Encore Parkway 12/18/2012 4:45 AM 22 Pitts Pitts Station 12/17/2012 6:51 AM 23 Pitts Pitts should be dropped 12/12/2012 9:57 PM 24 Pitts Instead of Pitts consider Northridge 12/12/2012 7:06 PM 25 Pitts Pitts 12/12/2012 4:26 PM 26 Pitts Pitts. Can just head right down to North Springs on Peachtree-Dunwoody.

Main purpose should be to alleviate congestion along 400 corridor into the Perimeter area, 1/10/2013 7:28 PM Buckhead, Midtown, Downtown and the Airport. I don't see the need for the light rail and other bus options. Don't move enough people and side streets must be updated first. 8 North Point Mall 1/10/2013 7:57 AM 9 Northridge Northridge Road 1/10/2013 7:24 AM 10 None No. The point of the rail is to provide consistent service that out performs trip times for the 1/10/2013 6:24 AM automobile. I work downtown and the more stops means more delays. The only way I would consider riding this is if trip times are consistent, reliable, and improve my commute. 11 None No 1/6/2013 1:19 PM 12 Northridge Northridge station 1/6/2013 12:58 PM 13 Northridge Northridge 1/4/2013 8:42 AM 14 Outside of Area Continue the line north to Cumming. 1/3/2013 8:31 PM 15 None None 1/3/2013 12:05 PM 16 Northridge Northridge Road 12/26/2012 1:37 PM 17 Yes 12/25/2012 12:48 AM 18 Northridge Closer to Northridge Rd 12/24/2012 6:53 PM 19 Northridge I think personally that the Pitts access point should be replaced with an access point at 12/23/2012 12:05 PM Northridge Road as there is more current development and opportunity for development in the Northridge/400 area. 20 Outside of Area Extend HRT to Exit 12, if not the heavy rail, at least a bus that shuttles from 12 to the 12/20/2012 1:25 PM station at 11 at the bare minimum. 21 Outside of Area An access point in Johns Creek will be beneficial. 12/19/2012 4:16 PM 22 Northridge Northridge 12/19/2012 5:38 AM 23 None no 12/18/2012 6:09 AM 24 Northridge Northridge Station 12/17/2012 6:51 AM 25 McGinnis Ferry I would love to see the line extended to the County Line at McGinnis Ferry or McFarland 12/13/2012 3:18 PM Parkway 26 Northridge Northridge road would help to increase transit access to other areas and decrease burden of 12/13/2012 10:30 AM traffic usage at Holcomb Bridge/Pitts station. 27 Northridge Consider a Northridge + Highway 9 access point OR a Morgan Falls access point instead of a 12/12/2012 9:57 PM Pitts station— Pitts road is out of the way. In Alpharetta, a downtown alpharetta station is possible because there are abandoned industrial lots— please pass this map along: http://goo.gl/maps/MwSyE 28 Holcomb Bridge Station should be designed to link with Riverwalk Trail 12/12/2012 6:13 PM 29 Northridge Northridge Road 12/12/2012 4:26 PM 5 / 38 Connect 400 Alternatives # Responses Date 30 Northridge Northridge. Will pick up a large population south of the Chattahoochee from the Roswell Rd / 12/12/2012 3:59 PM Hwy 9 Corridor. The river is a significant chokepoint for surface transportation on Hwy 9.

For other uses, including electronic redistribution, please contact us. January 1999 Features Time and motion by Robert Hunt Since the dawn of time mankind has searched for ever quicker ways to travel from A to B. First it was the wheel; then horses and other animals were drafted in to help, and in the last century steam engines started to power locomotives. Aeroplanes took off in this century, and in 1976 Concorde was the first passenger transport to break the sound barrier. The fastest method of transport in modern times is the spacecraft, such as NASA's Space Shuttle. Time and motion 1 Time and motion Figure 1: The blue route? But speed isn't the only consideration in travel: it's also important to make sure that the route chosen is the shortest. Imagine you were piloting Concorde from London to San Francisco, and you had to choose a route on the map. Would you choose the straight line, marked in blue, or the long curved line marked in yellow? Well the curved line is the shortest one! Figure 2: Or the yellow? Why's that? It's because the Earth isn't flat, but maps are, so maps are always distorted. The shortest route between two points on a globe is along part of a great circle, which is a large circle going all the way round the globe with the centre of the Earth at the centre of the circle.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Perth's urban rail renaissance Abstract Over the past thirty five years, instead of being discontinued from use, Perth's urban rail network has been tripled in route length and electrified at 25,000 oltsv AC. The extensions include the Northern Suburbs Railway (with stage 1 opened in 1993 and this line reaching Butler in 2014), and, the 72 kilometre Perth Mandurah line opening in 2007. Integrated with a well run bus system, along with fast and frequent train services, there has been a near ten fold growth in rail patronage since 1981 when some 6.5 million passengers used the trains to 64.2 million in 2014-15. Bus patronage has also increased. These increases are even more remarkable given Perth's relatively low population density and high car dependence. The overall improvements in Perth's urban rail network, with many unusual initiatives, have attracted international attention.

  • Everett's Inbound Bus Lane on Broadway
    EVERETT Fast, reliable, and accessible transportation was lacking in Everett, Transforming a Parking Lane and city officials knew something had to change. A city just north of Boston, Everett saw that it’s lack of quality transportation into a Shared Bus/Bike Lane options for residents and those passing through were insufficient. Originally the Mayor wanted to explore extending the Orange Line for the Morning commute or the commuter rail, both of which would be costly and lengthy projects. However, after MassDOT completed the Everett Transit Action Plan in November 2016, it was clear that bus improvements would be a faster, and cheaper, way to prioritize transit in the City. Morning Peak Time Dedicated Bus Lane Everett’s Mayor was a strong believer in the Transit Action Plan Pilot: December 2016 to September 2017 and provided the political will for changes to be made. Mode share data showing that 50% of people on the corridor were on the bus Permanent: September 2017 was the single biggest thing that convinced the Mayor and his administration that bus riders were not a minority and should be prioritized for street space. The Everett Transit Action Plan, which included extensive public process, helped set the stage for the City to begin a pilot for bus improvements shortly after the conclusion of the study. Most new planning projects go through a lengthy and typical process of holding nighttime meetings with residents, gathering feedback, and then spending months working with consultants to reach a final design, but this project was different. With the foundation of the Transit Action Plan, the City of Everett made a decision to try a new project implementation process.

  • Methodologyforterritor
    MODAL SPLIT INDICATORS METHODOLOGY FOR TERRITORIALISATION OF AIR TRANSPORT APRIL 2020 MODAL SPLIT INDICATORS METHODOLOGY FOR TERRITORIALISATION OF AIR TRANSPORT SUMMARY The methodology for ‘territorialisation’ of air transport data in the European Union, presented below, has been developed by Eurostat. ‘Territorialisation principle’ means that only freight and passenger transport performed within the territory of a country is considered. In terms of air transport, 'territorialisation' means that the transport performed in the air space is allocated to the countries overflown on each air transport route. The aim of territorialisation is to compare shares of each transport mode into the total transport performance in the European Union and also at national level. This is called the ‘modal split’ between the different transport modes. ‘Territorialisation’ is straight-forward for transport by road, railway and inland waterways, as it takes place on the territory of a country. The calculation is more complex for maritime and air transport, which only uses airport or port infrastructure in the country where the transport starts (origin) and where it ends (destination), and merely passes through the national waters or airspace of other countries on the route. ‘Transport performance’ is measured in tonnes-kilometres (tkm) for freight and passenger-kilometres for passengers (pkm). A tonne-kilometre is defined as one tonne of freight flying for one kilometre; a passenger-kilometre is defined as one passenger flying for one kilometre. The total tkm or pkm on an air route are, first, calculated based on passengers/freight transported between pair of airports and a distance matrix; and, then, the calculated tkm/pkm are ‘territorialised’ by allocating them proportionally to the countries overflown, according to the distance flown over each country.

  • Dc Circulator Customer Satisfaction Survey 2019 Topline Report
    DC CIRCULATOR CUSTOMER SATISFACTION SURVEY 2019 TOPLINE REPORT Prepared for: Prepared by: Date: February 14, 2020 TOPLINE REPORT Background and Purpose The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) commissioned WBA Research to conduct the DC Circulator Customer Satisfaction Study in the Fall of 2019. From October 16th to November 11th, 2019, WBA Research (WBA) distributed surveys onboard buses throughout DDOT’s DC Circulator bus system. The purpose of this survey was to gauge satisfaction with the service offered by DC Circulator, as well as to identify areas of strength and areas where there are opportunities for improvement. Distribution and Completion. WBA’s trained survey distributors handed out surveys aboard DC Circulator buses on all six routes across the DC Circulator system. In total, WBA received 1,143 completed surveys across weekdays and weekends on all six routes. Weighting. WBA built daily weights by the route and day of the week on which a given respondent was surveyed. In order to build the weights, DDOT provided ridership counts for each route for the month of October 2019. By using the total ridership during the month of October 2019 for each route, WBA was able to build weights that allowed the results to be representative of each route’s ridership on a weekday or weekend. Key Findings Satisfaction. DC Circulator experiences high ratings from its riders, with riders giving an average overall satisfaction rating of 8.7 on a 0 to 10 scale. While this is still high, it is a decline from overall satisfaction observed in 2018 (9.0). Nearly all riders (99 percent) would recommend DC Circulator to others.
