摘要

Gasoline prices have risen substantially over the last three years worldwide. Many transitagencies have pointed to fuel price growth as a major impetus to increased transit ridership. The researchherein builds upon previous research conducted in 2006 by this research team, which found highcorrelation between fuel price and transit ridership in several historically auto-based US metropolises.This comparative research sought to discern whether a similar pattern of fuel cost-driven mode choicecould be observed in Canadian cities. Three Canadian cities, Calgary, Ottawa, and Vancouver, wereselected based on their relative levels of auto-orientation and the extent and variety of transit servicesoffered.This study found that although ridership and fuel prices grew in all three cities, the rates of growth do notcorrespond and correlation is unlikely. Reasons for this inconsistency with patterns in US cities mayinvolve higher-density city layouts and commute distances.
