Abstract:

The Rural Public Transportation Technologies: User Needs and Applications Study was conducted as part of the U.S. DOT's overall Rural Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Program. The study examined the opportunities and challenges of planning and deploying advanced public transportation systems (APTS) technologies in rural and small urban areas. The purpose of the study was to gain a better understanding of the state of the practice of rural APTS and to determine where the U.S. DOT could best direct its resources to close the gap between current practice and the state of the art. User and operator surveys and site visits were conducted A state-of-the-art technology assessment was also conducted and focused on transit-related advanced traveler information systems for transit riders and applications of APTS technologies to improve financial accountability and data verification for rural transit operators. Nine rural ITS action items are recommended to address the identified needs. The study's expert panel recommended that high priority be given to the delivery/outreach aspect of the Rural ITS Program. This report was produced under contract DTFH61-93-C-00048. An Executive Summary, which summarizes the findings of this study, was also prepared.
