摘要

This study analyzes the structure of transit demand in different segments of Atlanta’s transitsystem, a multi-destination, rail and bus network, to understand why different elements of thenetwork appeal to transit-dependent and choice riders. We estimate direct demand models oftransit work trip use by self-identified bus and rail riders between pairs of traffic analysis zones.We find that self-identified bus riders exhibit transit-dependent characteristics. They come frompoorer areas having fewer autos per household and seek to reach jobs scattered throughout themetropolitan area. They want a grid of bus and rail routes connecting them to the region’semployment centers with faster, more direct and more frequent service with better amenities attransfer points. Their demand is highly elastic with respect to travel time. They care not about thepresence of TOD attributes at either trip origins or destinations. On the other hand, self-identifiedrail riders exhibit choice rider characteristics. They primarily access transit by automobile andwant fast service to within convenient walking distance of employment, such as in the CBD andsome but not all TODs. The results suggest that an agency could increase ridership by bothgroups by developing a core network of higher speed lines (either bus or rail) that operatethrough an urban region’s job-rich corridors with stations about 1.5 miles apart that offer easywalks to jobs within a ½ mile radius. Additional choice riders might be attracted to rail transit byredeveloping destination station areas as mixed use, walkable, pedestrian-friendly environments.
