TCRP Web-Only Document 44: Literature Review for Providing Access to Public Transportation Stations

摘要

There is a substantial body of literature summarizing transit access issues, including several comprehensive transit access guidelines produced by transit agencies. This literature indicates that many agencies are planning for integrated, multi-modal access to high-capacity transit rather than focusing on a single access mode. In several cases (e.g. BART and WMATA), these agencies are prioritizing non-auto access trips due to both environmental benefits and the high-cost of providing facilities for automobile access.
