Bus - Highway Connections Make Transit More Competitive With Driving Status: CompleteReport Date: 04/23/2019 Summary: Researchers developed a method for associating travel times and travel costs with transit mobility. In an evaluation of bus - highway system interactions, investigators found that park-and-ride lots and managed lanes put suburban and walk-up urban transit options on equal footing. Bus - highway system interactions improve access to job locations and have improved transit access to job sites by about 20 percent compared to automobile access. When wage-related costs are included, the benefit of automobile use over transit use diminishes significantly.
