TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM AND TRAVEL BEHAVIOR PROJECT RESEARCH PLAN

The Transportation System and Travel Behavior (TSTB) Project of the BART Impact Program will assess the impacts of BART upon the characteristics and performance of the Bay Area transportation system--including BART, parallel and complementary transit services, and the highway system--and the responses of travelers to BART and related transportation system changes, including traveler perceptions, attitudes, and behavior. The report includes discussion of a conceptual framework of the impact processes, the major research questions to be addressed, the priorities for the research, the research methods, and finally, the major work elements of the TSTB Project.
