OneBusAway (King Co.) • New interface for existing real-time bus arrival information • Launched summer 2008, steadily increasing use since then • Survey of users (n = 488) recruited through notices • More male & young than general ridership, self-reported • Similar income levels, represents 10% of daily user base • 92% somewhat or much more satisfied with public transit • Cited certainty, ease, and flexibility in comments • Age significantly negatively correlated with satisfaction • 91% reported shorter wait times • 78% said they were more likely to walk to a different route • Statistically significant increase in feelings of safety 32
ShuttleTrac (UMD) • Interface for real-time university shuttle arrival information • Installed summer 2006, implemented spring 2007 • Pre- (n=1679) and Post- (n=1306) launch surveys targeting entire student body • Post survey began only two weeks after launch • Statistically significant improvement in: • Overall satisfaction • Feeling of security at night • Improved perception of on-time performance • No effect on self-reported shuttle trips • Suggests stop location and route changes to increase ridership 33
Bus Tracker (Chicago) • Staggered launches of real-time bus information service • Implemented August 2006 to May 2009 • Longitudinal study over 2002-10, controlling for outside factors • Implementation of Bus Tracker on a route led to: • Statistically significant increase in ridership • An extra 126 rides per day or a ~2% increase • Greater increases in later implementations could signify: • Cumulative effect • More connectivity along later routes 34
