The report consists of a handbook to be used by transportation planners and urban specialists for estimating system parameters for conventional transportation technology. Three modes are evaluated: rail transit, local bus and bus rapid transit, and highway systems. Each mode contains an assessment of the following seven selected supply parameters: (1) Speed--average, maximum; (2) capacity (service volume)--vehicle, person; (3) operating cost (vehicle); (4) energy consumption (vehicle or source); (5) pollutant emission (vehicle or source); (6) capital cost--land, construction, vehicle acquisition; and (7) accident frequency. These parameters are organized as proxy variables in describing the characteristics of each transport mode.
