Ridership Accuracy and Transit Formula Grants [PDF]

open access: yesTransportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2006
The accuracy of annual unlinked passenger trips reported to the National Transit Database (NTD) at the agency level is examined by using a two-step approach. The first step compares ridership reported to the American Public Transportation Association (APTA) with ridership reported to NTD.

Analysis and Prediction of Subway Ridership

open access: yesHighlights in Science, Engineering and Technology, 2023
Many people go by subway in China. Huge passenger flow brings much trouble to the police and passengers, such as crowded carriages, long waiting times and low-efficiency transport. So it is important to know the traffic jam before it brings many problems. With the data from Tianchi Competition, this paper analyzes and predicts the subway ridership of a

A stochastic user-operator assignment game for microtransit service evaluation: A case study of Kussbus in Luxembourg

open access: yes, 2020
This paper proposes a stochastic variant of the stable matching model from Rasulkhani and Chow [1] which allows microtransit operators to evaluate their operation policy and resource allocations.

Bus Transit Operational Efficiency Resulting from Passenger Boardings at Park-and-Ride Facilities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In order to save time and money by not driving to an ultimate destination, some urban commuters drive themselves a few miles to specially designated parking lots built for transit customers and located where trains or buses stop.

Uncovering Regular Travel Pattern for Metro Passenger Through Graph Neural Network

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study tackles the increasing complexity of passenger travel patterns in urban rail transit systems by utilizing Automated Fare Collection (AFC) data and an enhanced GraphSAGE model. We construct detailed spatiotemporal travel graphs and introduce a weighted aggregation strategy to capture intricate network relationships.

The Factors Influencing Transit Ridership: A Review and Analysis of the Ridership Literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
What explains transit ridership? The answer to this simple question is both obvious and complex. Public transit systems carry large shares of person travel in older, larger metropolitan areas around the globe, but in most places – old and new, large and small – transit is losing market share to private vehicles.

Examining the Development Effects of Modern-Era Streetcars: An Assessment of Portland and Seattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Most U.S. cities pursuing streetcars are doing so primarily for their purported development effects, as opposed to for their transportation role, yet there is little evidence about the nature or magnitude of these development effects due to a scarcity of
