| 摘要： | Los Angeles region has the largest network of bus transit system covering an area of 1,400 sq. miles with 1,433 of road miles of local transit and commuter lines, and 96 miles of Rapid Transit lines. The integrated network currently serves a transit dependent population of 1.4 million daily. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) estimates a continued growth in population, housing, and employment density in the region. Rapid immigration, increase in youth and senior population, and the addition of lower income workers are contributing to an increase in the transit dependent population. This trend is expected to continue as congestion costs and the cost of auto ownership continue to escalate driven largely by Southern California's sprawling development patterns. With current levels of utilization of bus transit (seat miles) at 34%in Los Angeles there is room for increasing ridership with the promotion of more compact developments. |
