Joint Funding Agreements between Universities and Transit Operating Properties. Executive Summary

摘要

A survey collected information concerning the existence of joint funding relationships between operating properties and local colleges, universities or technical schools. Joint funding relationships are agreements between transit systems and institutions wherein the transit system extends services beyond those normally provided in return for some form of non-fare consideration from the school. Four hundred and thirty-five systems were surveyed. Two hundred and fifteen responded. Forty-seven of these systems indicated that they had entered into such relationships. On the average, the relationships generated revenues of $335,585. This accounted for approximately 18% of total system revenue.
