Abstract:This research is a follow-up of the Analysis of Local Markets study conducted by the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center during 2015-17. Whereas the primary objectives of the previous study were to examine both traffic (i.e., congestion) and air quality (i.e., greenhouse gas) impacts of local buses, the primary objective of the current study is to examine only air quality impacts. The analysis of air quality impacts from transportation in New Jersey is important because of the high level of air pollution in most parts of the state. While the primary objective of this research is to estimate the greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts of local buses, its secondary objective is to examine the socioeconomic and travel characteristics of bus riders. To fulfill these objectives, a survey of bus riders was necessary. The survey was conducted between 6 AM and 4 PM onboard buses of 25 routes in four general areas or county groups of New Jersey: Hudson County, Middlesex/Monmouth County, Burlington County, and Morris County.
