THE IMPACT OF THE PHILADELPHIA - LINDENWOLD RAPID TRANSIT LINE ON AUTOMOBILE USAGE

This paper examines new data now available and concludes that there has definitely been a decrease in peak-hour bridge usage by automobiles. The paper further considers what would be the impact on automobile bridge traffic if the line were to shut down, noting that there has been considerable growth in the Jersey suburbs since the line was completed.
