| SUBJECT: |
Comprehensive Operations Analysis Overview |
FOR INFORMATION ONLY
VTA staff has begun a Comprehensive Operations Analysis (COA) to analyze existing transit service, develop operating performance measures, identify underserved markets, and test alternative operating service scenarios. The COA effort relies on information such as current and historic VTA operations data, demographic and travel statistics, the results of a new on-board passenger survey and an analysis of transit markets. A key element of the study is an evaluation of system efficiency, determining how to deliver cost-effective service within a constrained budget condition. The primary final product will be a revised Service Operating Plan that best meets existing and future passenger needs while achieving optimal system efficiency.
Kevin Connolly, Transit Planning Manager, will be making an overview presentation of the Comprehensive Operations Analysis, focusing on data collection efforts.
