FINANCING
The U.S. transit industry faces a series of profound economic, social, and political forces that force it to consider alternative ways of providing urban transportation services. Without significant structural change, the industry's ability to survive in its current form has to be questioned. This paper focuses on financial and related operational changes that can provide practical help in the near term. Many of these options have been selected, however, for their potential to assist in resolving long-term problems as well.
