This paper describes the ridership estimation procedure for the proposed Beirut Suburban Mass Transit System over the 2000–2015 time frame, and its implications on the selection of appropriate mass transit technology. The primary tool used in the ridership estimation is the Emme/2 network modeling and simulation package. The modeling effort reflected a number of data collection and statistical analysis efforts. Assumptions about economic growth, travel demand, infrastructure development, and policies were adopted to predict passenger demand for the mass transit system under a variety of plausible scenarios.
