The report explores the development and application of transit operating and maintenance (O&M) cost models. Included is a data base of O&M cost information for bus, rapid rail, light rail and commuter rail modes to be applied in structuring cost models. The data base also contains aggregate costs per unit of service at 'peer' transit agencies to use testing the reasonableness of model results. Originally developed to supplement the Federal Transit Administration's guidance on transit project planning, the report has additional utility in systems planning due to new financial planning requirements in the intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991. Metropolitan planning organizations should find the data base useful in developing financially constrained plans for future transit systems. Other parts of the report are primarily intended for agencies involved in transit project planning at the corridor or subarea level.
