Public Transportation Vehicle Maintenance 1991 Cost Study. Planning and Managing Vehicle Maintenance Programs.

摘要

The study is an investigation of public transportation: maintenance management performance, and the manpower and costs requirements to support vehicle maintenance operations of motor bus and demand responsive services. The objectives of the study are: (1) Record current (1990-91) cost and manpower data for various fleet sizes of motor buses and demand responsive services, (2) Update vehicle maintenance budget models in support of various fleet sizes, (3) Compare collected data with similar data from a 1984/85 California study, and (4) Identify any needs for additional management tools and/or public transportation maintenance management training. The study is one part of a larger project that involves similar surveys undertaken simultaneously throughout twelve other states. Reports profiling other individual states' data are also available, and a separate stand-alone report recaps the entire national study.
