Abstract:

The U.S. Department of Transportation, John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center’s (Volpe Center) Environmental Measurement and Modeling Division prepared this letter report in support of Project Plan Agreement (PPA) HW-21M with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The PPA provides for National Park Service (NPS) Transportation Program Support. The report presents the results of a technical study of the noise and air quality benefits associated with the introduction of visitor shuttle buses in place of a percentage of visitor personal occupancy vehicles (POVs) in both Zion National Park (Zion) and Acadia National Park (Acadia). The primary objective of this study was to quantify the air quality and noise benefit associated with the replacement of a certain percentage of POVs with tour buses in both Zion and Acadia. A secondary objective was to develop the methodology, including the analytical tools to facilitate similar studies in other parks.
