This study examines strategies employed to encourage and enhance transit use in Texas and throughout the country. Two reports document the results of this research. The first is "Design Guidelines to Enhance Pedestrian and Transit Interaction, " which presents a step[-by-step process for planning and designing transit facilities to enhance passenger convenience, comfort, and safety. The report presented here documents the second portion of the study which examined policies and programs supporting transit use. It includes a state-of-the-art literature review of the use and the experience with different techniques, a general discussion of the different approaches, and more detailed case studies of the strategies used in four metropolitan areas. The report identifies the policies and programs that appear most appropriate for further application in Texas. Finally, examples are provided of the gene ral approaches and implementation techniques that can be used by transit providers, municipalities, the Texas Department of Transportation, private business, and other groups to support increased transit use in the state.
A reference on the subject of public transportation. Current issues such as traffic congestion, air pollution and energy conservation are covered to provide a framework for informed decision making. The book is aimed at civil and transportation engineers, planners, operators and public officials.
Changes in the transportation system have a large influence on urban development patterns. The lacation, type, and intensity of urban land uses also affet the urban street and highway system. Various federal and state initiatives have been taken to more closely link trasportation and land use. These include the following: The Traffic Congestion Management System (CMS) mandated by the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA). The CMS regulators specifically state that state and local agencies must address existing congestion and avoid potential future congestion. This clearly implies that the impact of land use and development decisions on transportation must be more effectively addressed than in the past. State-manadated growth management requirements such as those in Oregon, Washington, Florida, and Vermont. State-manadated local planning which must meet state criteria as those in Florida, Hawaii, Maine, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and Oregon. State-mandated congestion management which requires that the impact of proposed development must be assessed and provides penalties if development that degrades congestion is approved by a local government (California). Access management practicies administered by the state highway agency which are designed to protect the public investment in major state roadways (Colorado, Florida, and New Jersey). In order to address traffic congestion problems, many municipaltiies have implemented travel demand ordinances which are intended to reduce drive-alone auto use and encourage ridesharing and transit. In other locations, such requirements have been, or are being, implemented in response to federal clean air requirements.
