The research examined special downtown or small bus systems in forty cities throughout the United States. Data were collected in questionnaires received from fourteen cities using small-size buses and nine cities using standard vehicles. Emphasis is focused on vehicle design, type of service (ie. route coverage, headways, vehicles in service, fares, patronage, and duration of service), system costs, public response, and impact on center city traffic circulation. The analysis is broken down between the two basic types of service. The report develops recommendations for efficient use of small and conventional vehicles, integrated downtown bus transportation service, and user-oriented planning functions. Complete survey data are appended. (Author)
