Transit america
The FTA has launched a new online data tool, designed to make it easier for Americans to access safety, security, and performance data for public transit systems nationwide.
The new online tool, Transit Moves America, uses the existing data that FTA collects through the National Transit Database to provide a better snapshot of transit systems’ safety and security, accessibility, and system reliability.
Key features:
Safety and security related data will be refreshed monthly
Accessibility and efficiency data will be updated annually
National averages related to safety and security data will be available as well as metrics for individual transit agencies
Data will be customized to reflect conditions on bus systems and train systems
Operating costs per passenger trip are available for the 25 largest urban areas in the nation
The release of this new online tool accompanies a Request for Information (RFI) issued in June, soliciting input from the transit industry and the public about how to assess the quality of public transportation service across five areas: safety and security; cleanliness; universal accessibility; real-time service data; and system reliability.
