A multi-service transportation project was designed to improve the mobility of underprivileged inner city dwellers, some 20% of whom were estimated to lack access to existing fixed-route bus service. Objectives of the demonstration were to identify the groups that lack adequate transportation, and their needs, and to design, implement, and evaluate a corrective system. A detailed market planning study was conducted to determine the potential ridership groups with reference to area characteristics, demographic features, and trip-making. Specific bus routes were designed and operated for both general purpose and work trips. A demand-responsive bus service was operated to meet specific needs of inner city residents traveling to health, welfare, and other service centers. Project management and financing are emphasized.
