One of the main purposes of the demonstration was to assess the extent to which an unlimited-use transit pass serves to act as a fare and transit integration instrument for transit users who make intramodal and/or intermodal transfers. In addition to the issue of transit integration, this evaluation also examines four major aspects of the Atlanta demonstration project: (1) the socioeconomic and transit ridership characteristics of pass buyers; (2) the ridership and revenue consequences of a systemwide fare increase and the ability of a pass to minimize the impact of a fare increase; (3) the bus-rail integration enhancements of a barrier-free rail station; and (4) the trip generation and diversion effects of introducing rail transit service.
