<p> Gloucester County</p><p>Paige Gillette and Jon Broscious</p><p>DEMOGRAPHICS:</p><p>Gloucester County is located in the south-west portion of New Jersey as show above. With a total area of 337 square miles, comprised of 325 square miles land and 12 square miles water, Gloucester is home to 282,031 people1 and has a population density of 785 people per square mile.2</p><p>Total number of people Demographic Percentage of people (thousands) City residents 282 100% Under school leaving age (18-) 65.4 23.2% Working age (18-64) 184.4 65.4% Retired (65+) 32.2 11.4% Below poverty line 17.5 6.2%</p><p>Statistical Quantity Demographic3</p><p>Number of families 59,829 Number of households 78,845 Persons per household 2.87 Median Household income $39,387</p><p>1 2006 estimate 2 2000 estimate 3 US Census Decennial: http://www.co.gloucester.nj.us/plan/webbook/int_facts.htm Median Family Income $44,216 Per Capita Income $18,249 Mean travel time to work 28 minutes</p><p>The following is a list of the most popular attractions (leisure activities) with their corresponding city locations:</p><p>Deptford Mall 1750 Deptford Center Road Deptford Heritage Glass Museum 25 High St. East Glassboro Hollydell Ice Arena 601 Holly Dell Drive Sewell Commerce Bank Arts Center 519 Hurffville-Crosskeys Rd Sewell</p><p>TRANSPORTATION IN GLOUCESTER</p><p>Around 93% of people use private transport although over 18% work outside the state and 36% work outside the country. The bus services are not well connected. Bus routes include 9 regional interstate and two intrastate.4 There are no transit stops in the county itself. </p><p>MOCK PRT SYSTEM</p><p>There are 65 schools and over 1700 attractions in Atlantic County. The focus for the PRT Network was spread evenly over productions and attractions. Generally, both housing and attractions were located in small clumps, so that is was much more efficient placing stations where they could be accessed by large numbers of people. Since there are no existing transit stops in place, the PRT network represents a completely new design for Gloucester County. It was designed so that one would have approximately at most 5 stops before the final destination. The ratio of stations to interchanges was 4.2 to 1.</p><p>With 151 nodes (stations and interchanges) attempting to supply a total of 4500 productions and 527,088 attractions, this PRT system yielded success rates of 98.98% for productions and 94.59% for attractions. Note: it needs to be taken into consideration that the population statistics are almost 100% accurate, while large numbers of productions and attractions were eliminated if they could not be geocoded. More accurate statistics need to be taken before this model can be completely accepted or rejected as a plan for the future of NJ transport.</p><p>4 See Fall07 report Cost of PRT</p><p>Cost per station = $2m, Number of stations = 122 Total cost of stations =$244m Cost per mile of guideway = $5m, length of guideway = 295.83km = 183.82miles Total cost of guideway = $919m Cost per vehicle = $100,000 at 1.5% of the fleet driving cars with a 90% or more covered PRT network Total cost of vehicles = 100K*0.015*282,031=$423m</p><p>Expense per person = Total cost/population = $1586m/282K = $5624 Number of trips per person per day = 4 Cost per trip per person to pay for the system over a year = $5624/(4*365) = $3.85</p><p>Raw Statistics</p><p>Total guideway length in km = 295.82538 Total stations 122, Total interchanges 29 Productions:4454 supplied of 4500 98.98% Attractions:498597 supplied of 527088 94.59% Total Station:122 Avg Walk Attr:0.2755km Avg Walk Prod:0.2349km Avg Dist From Station:0.2039km</p>
