The cost of providing transit service is a function of its speed. User benefits from that service are also functions of speed. Speed is one of the basic elements of a system's level of service and thereby has an impact on mobility in the city. The basic problem studied in this research was to define all the relationships between speed and costs and benefits of a transit service. Those relationships would make it possible to develop a systematic method of evaluation of transit speed for any mode of urban public transportation. The effectiveness of various methods for reducing transit travel times on the average travel speed was also examined. Some attention was given to the costs and implementation possibilities of these methods of transit speed increases.
