- Tool Development to Evaluate the Performance of Intermodal Connectivity (EPIC)
On this project: Brian D. Taylor, Allison Yoh, Hiroyuki Iseki, Michael Smart, Chandini Singh
Research Area(s):This Caltrans-sponsored research project aims to improve the attractiveness of public transit services by reducing travelers’ perceived burdens of walking, waiting, and transferring. The research team completed Phase 1 of the research in 2008 (findings below) and is currently working on the second phase of the project. The project’s aim is to identify the factors that influence transit riders’ lev …

- Data needs in public transit research
PI: Brian D. Taylor
Researchers: Jacob Wasserman
Research Area(s): Public TransitThis project will develop a framework that outlines outlines the various types of data relevant to understanding public transit systems and their use, identifies currently available data for each of these types, and their quality, and makes recommendations on how to address data needs for public transit research. The goals of this white paper will be two-fold: (1) be a go-to source of information …
