• Abstract:
  Florida’s transportation infrastructure must continually evolve to meet the demands of its growing population. Many jurisdictions are moving toward multimodal transportation systems that utilize existing infrastructure more efficiently, providing users with travel options and minimizing economic, social, and environmental costs associated with a purely vehicular system. To support these efforts, measures of how well the transportation system serves its users must also evolve. The most widely used measure, level of service (LOS), is itself based on other measures of a community, such as population density, parking supply, bus shelter locations, and many others. However, LOS now focuses on automobiles. So, performance measures are needed that will supplement the vehicle-based LOS.
