Operation Bus Stop is a study designed to determine the feasibility of transporting unemployed and underemployed persons from rural areas to jobs in urban areas. The study area included four rural South Carolina Counties. The potential employees resided in a 5-mile corridor on either side of Interstate Route 26. A commuter transportation system was recommended to transport rural residents to jobs in Charleston and Columbia, South Carolina. The socioeconomic structure of the four rural counties was considered with regards to population characteristics, education, labor force, and employment. The existing transportation facilities available to the residents of the study area were examined. A survey of the unemployed and underemployed labor force residing in the vicinity of the Interstate 26 corridor was conducted for the purpose of determining the number of persons who were available for employment, as well as the levels of education and skill each had attained.
