Abstract Lane Transit District has been active in utilizing transportation demand management techniques to encourage use of alternatives to the single occupant vehicle. In 1993, a “Curb Your Car” project indicated that participating employees’ use of alternative modes was increased using a program of education and incentives. However, the full impacts were difficult to measure due to low response to follow-up surveys. This project was initiated to provide additional data for analysis of the impacts that education and incentives have on mode choice. Twenty-six Oregon state government offices in the Eugene- Springfield area offered the program to their employees. The program offered free bus passes and rewards for use of alternative modes. Baseline and follow-up surveys provide information on the immediate and longer term impacts of this type of education/incentive program. 17. Key Words 18.

    West Eugene EmX Extension Project FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT Eugene, Lane County, Oregon December 20, 2012 FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION REGION X FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT Lane Transit District West Eugene EmX Extension Project Eugene, Lane County, Oregon December 20, 2012 Introduction This document explains the determination by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) that the West Eugene Emerald Express (EmX) Extension Project (Project) proposed by the Lane Transit District (LTD) in Eugene, Oregon is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the environment. FTA’s finding is in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. § 4332 et. seq.). The Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) analyzed in the EmX Environmental Assessment (July 2012) (EA) resulted from extensive planning and public involvement, and includes considerable differences from the project as first proposed. The following context is useful. In 2007, LTD initiated studies of transportation alternatives in anticipation of seeking funding under FTA’s New Starts program. Later in 2007, FTA announced its Notice of Intent (NOI) to Prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the project (72 FR 53281 (Sept. 18, 2007)). The DEIS would be prepared jointly with a New Starts Alternatives Analysis (AA). At that time LTD identified a relatively wide range of conceptual alternatives to study. Through public and agency feedback and environmental screening, the range of alternatives was reduced by eliminating those that were infeasible or would result in too many negative impacts. The remaining alternatives were advanced to conceptual engineering refinement. Those alternatives included bus rapid transit (BRT) and regular bus options.

  • Lane Transit District, Oregon
    ONE CALL-ONE CLICK Profiles LANE TRANSIT DISTRICT, OREGON BACKGROUND This program is an example of a transit district that has developed a one-call service (known as Ride- Source), and has an array of programs supporting accessibility among individuals with disabilities. In the last two years the RideSource Call Center has expanded to a one-call service that serves as Medicaid non- emergency medical trips (the Oregon Health Plan Plus program),as well as ADA paratransit, which means that the one-call center serves an unusually wide group of clients. Lane Transit District (LTD) operates within Lane County, primarily within the Eugene/Springfield urban area, with service to nearby rural communities. Through LTD’s Accessible Services, programs for older adults, people with disabilities, and those with low incomes are extended throughout the entire county. The service area covers more than 4,700 square miles and has a population of 347,000. The largest cities are Eugene (population 155,000) and Springfield (population 58,000). DEVELOPMENT OF ONE-CALL SERVICES ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE Lane Transit District has a long-standing culture of providing services to individuals with disabilities and coordinating with other organizations in the community. It “lives and breathes accessibility” and has an Accessible Services Department within its Service Planning, Accessibility, and Marketing Division. LTD was an early adaptor of coordination, with activities spanning 30 years. By 1981, LTD had identified full accessibility of fixed-route buses as a key solution to providing mobility to people with disabilities, and began to implement this service. MISSION STATEMENT LTD enhances the community’s quality of life by: • Delivering reliable, responsive, and accessible public transit services.

    DRISI Research Results Caltrans Division of Research, Innovation and System Information Testing Vehicle-Assist and Automation Modal Technology in Public Transit Buses VAA helps bus drivers maintain lateral and longitudinal control, facilitating the expansion of bus rapid transit systems FEBRUARY 2016 Project Title: WHAT WAS THE NEED? Field Operational Tests of Vehicle-Assist Bus rapid transit (BRT) offers a cost-effective alternative to fixed-rail systems, and Automation (VAA) System for which are expensive to construct and operate. To run at a high level of Public Transit Buses reliability, a BRT system requires dedicated bus lanes. Adding lanes is costly, and many metropolitan areas have limited land to expand roadways. Task Number: 2508 Narrowing bus lanes by two feet reduces the right-of-way cost, but causes the buses to go slower for safety concerns. A vehicle assist and automation Start Date: June 1, 2012 (VAA) system with guidance and docking functions could enable buses to operate accurately and safely along narrow paths and precisely stop at bus Completion Date: February 28, 2015 stations, enhancing BRT’s efficiency and quality of service. Product Category: New or improved The VAA technologies developed in the past years show promise in providing technical standard, plan, or specification; transit agencies more efficient operations and cost savings. However, their full new or improved tool or equipment technical feasibility and merits have not been quantified. The U.S. Department of Transportation initiated a pilot program to demonstrate the benefits of Task Manager: VAA applications for full-size public transit buses in revenue service and Bradley Mizuno awarded conducting the program to Caltrans.

  • Students Ride for Free on LTD!
    For Immediate Release Media Contact: Pat Walsh Email: [email protected] Phone: 541-913-1236 Students Ride for Free on LTD! Eugene, Or. (August 22, 2019) – Beginning September 1, 2019, all kindergarten through 12th grade (K-12) students can ride an LTD bus for free by simply showing the bus operator their school identification card or telling the operator that they are a student. Parents or guardians of students in K-12 can also ride an LTD bus with their student during the entire month of September for free. “LTD provides this service to children and families through the generous support of our local state legislators,” said Aurora Jackson, LTD’s general manager. “We are pleased to once again provide students a ride to and from school along with other activities.” The student transit pass also creates access for K-12 students to ride anywhere on the entire LTD transit system, such as after-school activities and jobs. The Rhody Express in Florence and the Diamond Express to Oakridge are excluded from the Student Transit Pass program, A student transit pass can make it easier for families to get around town by reducing their transportation costs and the demands on parents to transport their children to school and activities. An additional goal is to create life-long transit users to decrease transportation impacts on our environment. Additional information about the student transit pass with the TouchPass tap card and mobile app will be available later this fall. Free student transit fares are made available through a grant to LTD from the State of Oregon’s Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund (STIF) approved through House Bill 2017.
