The purpose of the current study is to explore whether rural towns and counties use portions of their revenue sharing monies in support of public transit operations, or other forms of public transportation such as road construction and maintenance in contrast to public transit. This topic is of interest because the current demonstrations of public transportation programs in rural areas are supported principally out of federal demonstration funds of the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, and face the possibility of funding termination unless sufficient local financial support is forthcoming. The topic is additionally relevant to discussions of the impact of new legislation making broader federal assistance available to public transportation in nonurbanized areas. The latter funds are dependent upon the availability of local matching funds to undergird federally supported programs.
