GETTING PEOPLE TO PARKS

The purpose of this paper is to provide an economic perspective on the problem of transporting people to Gateway National Recreation Area located in New York City and northeastern New Jersey. While it does not contain any detailed empirical calculations for the solution to this complex issue, it is hoped that some of the suggestions might be useful input into the planning process, and might open the way to more detailed research and analysis.
