Two surveys were performed to elicit the opinions and demographic characteristics of both the Texas general public and intercity bus riders. A survey of bus station characteristics was performed concurrently with the bus rider survey. A final survey solicited comments from representatives of Texas bus companies. Government-owned multimodal transportation facilities was a frequently cited improvement that would serve two purposes: first, they would streamline the transfer from one mode of transportation to another, and second, they would eliminate the reliance the smaller bus companies have on terminal facilities owned or operated by larger companies. Operating subsidies for rural routes and billboards or highway signs advertising intercity bus service were other suggestions mentioned by bus company representatives.
