PARK-AND-POOL LOTS IN RURAL, NONURBANIZED AREAS

Through the Cooperative Research Program with the Texas State Department of Highways and Public Transportation, the Texas Transportation Institute has been involved in extensive evaluations of high-occupancy vehicle facilities throughout Texas. Park-and-Ride studies were first performed in the Dallas area in 1979 and extended to the Houston and San Antonio Metropolitan Areas in 1980. In 1982, The Texas Transportation Institute undertook investigations of Park-and-Go and Park-and-Pool facilities in and around the Dallas/Fort Worth region. This study presents the result of an investigation of Park-and-Pool activity in rural, nonurbanized areas throughout the State of Texas and compares the results with prior research findings.
