Value of Dedicated Right-of-Way: Transit Service Reliability and User Impacts

Recent studies on the impacts of A Line bus rapid transit (BRT) on ridership, housing values, and job growth in Twin Cities metropolitan areas demonstrated the positive impacts of reliable and frequent transit services at various degree. This project will extend existing research and focus explicitly on the service reliability and its potential to boost transit ridership and employments along service corridors.
