Abstract:

The introduction of Internet-of-Things (IoT) technology promises to enhance service reliability by providing accurate, real-time information on arrivals and departures, potentially improving ridership. IoT enables interconnected transportation systems, improving service reliability, connectivity, and accessibility, crucial for attracting ridership and addressing equity goals. However, the effectiveness of IoT in reducing service inequality remains a challenge, necessitating further research to develop new measures for connectivity and accessibility that consider IoT’s impact. This research aims to assess IoT’s potential to improve equity in public transit, using LA Metro as a case study and proposing a methodology that incorporates socioeconomic data and station-level analysis to guide policy and investment decisions.
