MASS TRANSIT IN ANCHORAGE

The study is an analysis of the mass transit situation in Anchorage with particular emphasis on the bus system or People Mover. The purpose of the study is to determine how the services provided by the people mover affect present and potential riders, and not on the internal operations and management of the system. Thus, route structure and stability rider characteristics, and publicity are examined. The study is divided into two sections (1) an executive summary outlining the major issues and options and (2) a technical report containing a detailed discussion of the issues, methodology, planning, and recommendations.
