WORKSHOP ON TRANSIT FARE POLICY AND MANAGEMENT: RESEARCH NEEDS AND PRIORITIES. WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
The workshop on transit fare related issues brought together key representatives from transit agencies, consulting firms, federal and local agencies, universities, and equipment vendors. Participants spent most of the three days in working groups discussing current issues and research needs related to transit fare policies, pricing strategies, and fare collection methods and technologies. The workshop opened with presentations of the four resource papers, which provided an excellent starting point for the working group discussions. In addition, a presentation on the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) "Fare Policies, Structures, and Technologies Study" also provided important information for the working groups. The priority research studies for each topical area identified by the four working groups and ranked as low, medium or high priority are listed in this Workshop Overview.
