摘要：	The lack of personal mobility has economic, social, and human costs, such as higher unemployment, reduced tax revenue, greater welfare and medical costs, and limited social potential. There is a need to define and measure the economic, social, and human costs of personal immobility and to identify public transportation services that will help reduce such costs. For the purposes of this project, the public transportation system was broadly defined to include publicly operated rail, bus, and light rail systems; school bus systems; social service agency transportation; paratransit; jitneys; private bus systems; and taxicabs. This research identified 11 transportation practices that help reduce such costs and provide economic benefits to both the riders and the larger community. Included in the report is the in-depth documentation of 11 case studies conducted in the following regions: one in a suburb of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; two in rural South Carolina; one in rural Missouri; one in Miami, Florida; three in Los Angeles, California; and three in Oakland, California and its suburbs.
