This is the Appendices case studies report to the FTA Policy Paper, mentioned above. It presents the results of six strategic transit corridor case studies which apply and test the new public choice approach to measuring transit benefits. These pilot studies are components of the Streamlined Strategic Corridor Travel Time Management Study. Each pilot study uses the convergence measurement techniques to derive a repeatable performance measurement for rail transit in congested corridors. The six case studies presented in this report are: (1) Interstate 270 Metro Red Line Corridor Serving Washington, DC; (2) Midway Orange Line Corridor Serving Chicago; (3) North Hanley Light Rail Corridor Serving St Louis; (4) Butterfield Light Rail Corridor Serving Sacramento; (5) Park Lane Light Rail Corridor Serving Dallas; and Gateway Light Rail Corridor Serving Portland, Oregon. The cast studies offer suggestions on how to translate public support for transit into the budgetary process via benefit measurement. The papers apply new research to measure transit benefits in a public choice analytical framework, providing the policy-oriented analytical framework for this research.
