THE INTERCITY BUS INDUSTRY: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY

This annotated bibliography of works on the intercity bus industry was compiled as a part of a project sponsored by the Legislative Extended Assistance Group (LEAG) for the Iowa legislature. This bibliography proceeds from two earlier ones compiled, first, in 1977 by Richard K. Taube for the Wisconsin State Department of Transportation; and second, in 1979 by Janice Bain for the National Transportation Policy Study Commission. (Ms. Bain later updated her bibliography in 1981 for the Transportation Research Board.) This bibliography also utilizes recent material from the Highway Research Information Service, made available by the Iowa Department of Transportation, and information from the California Department of Transportation's 1983 Update to that state's intercity bus plan. The materials cited are grouped under the following headings: bibliographies, statistics, economic analysis, finance and subsidy, legislation and Congressional hearings, planning and policy analysing regulation, and vehicles and technology.
