Abstract:

Many regions across the country have more than one transit agency providing vital public transportation ; services. While a transit agency may see their role limited by a jurisdictional boundary, transit riders’ ; commutes know no such political boundaries. For those riders whose commutes are reliant on one or more ; transit agencies, a fractured fare system among the various transit agencies they ride means higher user ; costs. This study will examine the history of regional fare integration in the New Orleans metropolitan ; region, and the challenges and successes of varying approaches taken by transit agencies in various ; metropolitan regions, to reveal options for achieving regional fare integration in New Orleans today.
