Abstract:In 1987, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development participated in a demonstration project with the Urban Mass Transportation Administration aimed at reducing capital and operating expenses for Section 16(b)(2) operators. The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development contracted with Urban Systems, Inc., a transportation consulting firm, to work with 16(b)(2) operators in Orleans and Tangipahoa Parishes to find a number of ways to reduce transportation operating costs and to improve transportation services for the elderly and handicapped. This manual presents nine (9) different methods that the contractor identified to help 16(b)(2) operators throughout Louisiana to reduce transportation operating costs and to improve transportation services for the elderly and handicapped. Most of the techniques are generally applicable in other states and can be used by operators nationwide. Not all agencies will benefit from the same methods. Each agency must examine its own needs and problems and then assess the local community resources to determine which methods will work. Each method presented in this manual may be implemented by itself or in combination with the other methods. This manual describes those methods that were found to be useful by one or more agencies in Orleans and Tangipahoa Parishes.
