Abstract:Mass transportation improvements are being developed in many freeway corridors in the major urban areas of the U.S. Since implementation of these types of improvements usually involves several different agencies, a variety of legal, administrative and jurisdictional issues arise. Given the large commitment to mass transit improvements in Texas, the State Department of Highways and Public Transportation will need to negotiate numerous cooperative agreements concerning the implementation of transit improvements in freeway corridors. This report presents the findings of a survey of major freeway-transit projects recently implemented in the U.S. The intent of this survey was to identify: (1) What types of freeway-transit improvements have been implemented; (2) How the projects were funded; (3) Who owns, operates and maintains the resulting improvements; and (4) What types of legal arrangements have been developed between the participating agencies. Both high-occupancy vehicle facilities and rail transit improvements were included in the survey.
