The Road Ranger program is a high profile program supported by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). It provides direct contact with the motoring public served by the Florida Intrastate Highway System. By quickly clearing the roadways of vehicles that run out of gas or need a tire changed, or by quickly removing debris from the roadway, the Road Rangers greatly reduce traffic congestion on Florida's roadways. As the various Districts consider extending and expanding their Road Ranger coverage, they must also consider how to fund this service, which raises the question: 'Just how much benefit is being realized from this expenditure.' Thus, there is a need to quantify the benefit of the Road Ranger program so that a benefit-cost ratio may be developed. This information would allow the Department to clearly evaluate whether additional funding should be allocated to Road Rangers from an already-limited budget. The objective of this study is to examine and evaluate the benefits of the Road Ranger service patrol in light of their operating costs in Florida. Five Districts (2,4,5,6 and 7) and the Turnpike were chosen for study due to the availability of Road Ranger program data and activity logs.
