Abstract:
Infrastructure management is an important aspect of transportation engineering. Contrasting views have emerged on feasible best practice in asset management for various transportation modes. The differences in current practice can provide insight into best practices and lessons learned. This paper focuses on heavy rail maintenance state of practice in the United States and compares the maintenance practices, strategies, and procedures implemented by four transit agencies across the country. The objective of the paper is to provide guidance and examples for other transit agencies in the United

Abstract:
The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) operates 1,250 buses on 168 different routes between 10,600 bus stops to support around 370,000 passengers each day. Utilizing sensors on vehicles and analyzing their location and movements throughout an hour, trip, or day can provide valuable information to a transit authority as well as to the users of a transit system. This amount of information can be overwhelming, but utilizing big data techniques can empower the data and the transit agency. First, this paper develops a methodology for assessing previous delays in the system by ap

Abstract:
For many Americans, living near high-quality rail transit stations provides an array of benefits. The benefits arise from lower transportation expenses, changing development patterns, and other nonuse factors. Automobile-centered development patterns increase congestion, sprawl, and pollution. The benefits of transit-oriented neighborhoods are explored. A hedonic price function is used to estimate property values and the effect of proximity to rail transit stations. Geographical information system databases were used to calculate actual walking distances to transit, providing a much more accur

Abstract:
Five years ago, several transportation agencies in Los Angeles County began discussions on developing a process to reevaluate the existing bus service delivery system, including the opportunity for public involvement and participation. As a result, the concept of a thorough restructuring study was developed. Restructuring studies are closely related to other activities focused on the bus system. In March 1996, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) board approved a broad-based bus system improvement plan that tied together many of the ongoing service improvements with proposed plans a

Abstract:
In traditional travel forecasting models, a limited set of attributes are used to describe transit utility. The transit access environment is one of the characteristics of the travel experience often ignored by the models in use today. A quantitative approach to incorporating the effects of the transit access environment into transportation planning models is presented. A measure called the transit friendliness factor, which is defined as a function of the characteristics of the area surrounding a transit stop, is proposed. These characteristics include the quality of the pedestrian facilities
