I must thank all my promoters (Prof. Dr. Luuk Boelens, Prof. Dr. Davy JANSSENS, and Prof. Dr. Robert Van der Bijl), who extended their invaluable and untiring intellectual capabilities right from scratch to finish this work. Their immense knowledge and quality consciousness kept me on track. The research is the result of approxi- mately 3.5 years-long effort during which I faced many challenges, but encouragement and enthusiasm that I received from my promoters helped me a lot throughout this trajectory. I would also like to thank all the doctoral committee members for their valuable and constructive remarks. I would also like to thank my respected father Mr. Basheer Ahmad Tahir, my mother and all my siblings, who were always there for me. Especial thanks to my better half and daughter, for supporting me during my Ph.D. as I barely had time to spend with them. Their immense love and support helped me a lot in completing my work. I would like to share my gratitude to my AMRP colleagues for their help and emotional support throughout the course of my Ph.D. I consider myself lucky to have such supportive Ph.D. fellows. I hereby extend my exclusive appreciation to Mr. Peter Davids, Mr. Syyed Adnan Raheel Shah, and Ms. Areesha Gul for their valuable insight and unconditional support. Moreover, I would like to acknowledge support from my friends, Mr. Mashhood Arif, Mr. Ahamd Adeel, and Mr. Kahlid Javed for making this journey easy for me and helping me in every situation. Last but not the least, I would like to thank my funding institute (e.g. Higher Education Commission of Pakistan), for providing me with the opportunity to complete my studies at one of the best institutes in the world. The time I spend at Ghent University and Universiteit Hasselt was a virtuous experience for me during which I have learned advanced data collection and modeling techniques. Both institutes had played a great share in my personal development that would definitely help me in the forthcoming.

    City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan – It’s Our Future: A Choice City May 17, 2016 2.1 – MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN ISSUES CONFRONTING OUR TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM… TODAY • Land use largely accommodates automobile-oriented corridors • Suburban land use design for majority of developed City • Transportation infrastructure investment supporting suburban roadway system • Increasing travel times • Many older narrow roadways, particularly in the rural area of the City IN THE FUTURE • Improve and sustain the City’s existing suburban and rural roadway network • Facilitate strategic growth within the City’s Strategic Growth Areas, including Transit- Oriented Development, will need to be supported by a multi-modal transportation system • New or renovated roadway projects to follow a Complete Streets approach • Emphasis on regional coordination to fund and implement transportation mega-projects • Maximize Transportation Demand Management to complement transportation infrastructure investments as another tool to reduce traffic congestion The following topics in relation to goals, policies, and action strategies are all equally important in the development of the City’s transportation network and this Master Transportation Plan. The framework for the Master Transportation Plan is: • Citywide Transportation Policies/Complete Streets • Roadways • Transit • Active Transportation • Other Regional Scale Transportation Planning • Transportation Demand Management • Intelligent Transportation Systems INTRODUCTION The City of Virginia Beach Master Transportation Plan (MTP) envisions the future of a multi-modal local and regional transportation network.

They may not have been subject to the formal editorial review accorded offi cial Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland publications. The views stated herein are those of the authors and are not necessarily those of the Federal Reserve Banks of Cleveland or the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Evidence from Hampton Roads, Virginia Gary A. Wagner, Timothy Komarek, and Julia Martin In this paper we examine the effect of light rail transit on the residential real estate market in Hampton Roads, Virginia. The Norfolk Tide light rail began operations in August 2011 and has experienced disappointing levels of ridership over its fi rst four years of operations. We estimate the effect of the Tide using a difference-in-differences model and consider several outcome variables for the residential housing market, including sales price, sales-list price spread and the time-on-market. Our identifi cation strategy exploits a proposed rail line in neighboring Virginia Beach, Virginia, that was rejected by a referendum in 1999. Overall, the results show negative consequences from the constructed light rail line.

  • Vol-4, Issue 10 Evaluation of Lahore Bus Rapid Transit System
    International Journal of Management Sciences and Business Research, Oct-2015 ISSN (2226-8235) Vol-4, Issue 10 Evaluation of Lahore Bus Rapid Transit System Author’s Details: (1) Dr. KASHIF RATHORE (2) KASHIF ALI Institute of Administrative Sciences, University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan Corresponding author: KASHIF ALI ABSTRACT This study evaluates Lahore bus rapid transit system according to BRT standard 2014. This study concludes that deviation from proposed transport policies is one of the factors that lead towards the failure of urban transport system in Lahore. Government did not pay proper attention to the recommendations proposed in different transport studies conducted by JICA and other transport institutions. The Lahore BRT has failed to receive gold, silver or bronze standard as it only achieved “Basic BRT” status. Lahore BRT is experiencing swear maintenance and operational issues that may lead towards the failure of Lahore BRT system in terms of passengers discomfort and reliability of the system may get affected in future. Key Words: Lahore BRT evaluation, BRT scoring, performance evaluation, bus rapid transit system, gap between standard and actual Lahore BRT. 1 INTRODUCTION Lahore is capital of Punjab province with population of 9.25 million according to Punjab development statistics 2014. The increased population needs more educational institutions, health facilities, and employment opportunities. To access these facilities an efficient, safe and comfortable urban transport system is vital. For poor public transport is often the only means of transportation. Without public transport, people would not be able to consider work opportunities at a far distance from their homes. So work opportunities would be limited for them.

    TRANSIT MEANS BUSINESS CASE STUDIES IN TRANSIT ® IN 2015, HRT SERVICES ALLOWED THE REGION TO AVOID 45 MILLION VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED ON ROADS. Source: Economic Development Research Group, Inc. Economic and Societal Impact of Hampton Roads Transit. 2016. PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION Effective public transportation reduces traffic congestion. It connects workers to jobs, students to classrooms, and customers to businesses. For some citizens, transit is an economic lifeline. It provides access to employment, healthcare, shopping and other opportunities that are essential to good quality of life and being productive in society. While you may never ride public transit, chances are you depend on someone who does. The presence of public transportation in Hampton Roads – and the potential of future transit investments to Connect Hampton Roads® with a more robust regional system – translates into direct, indirect and induced economic impacts and benefits for the region. With support of The Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation and national experts at Economic Development Research Group, this year the first-ever study of regional economic impacts and benefits of transit in Hampton Roads was completed. This booklet contains some key findings. With just over $100 million in annual transit operating and maintenance investments, Hampton Roads Transit (HRT) services today support over 20,300 jobs and $1.5 billion dollars annually in regional economic output (includes direct, indirect and induced). Transit’s role is evident across multiple sectors of the economy. This includes higher education, hospitality and tourism, healthcare, shipbuilding and repair, and niche industries like customer call centers. It also supports ongoing economic development and “placemaking” activities concentrated in areas like Downtown Norfolk.
