This study explores the relative roles of publically and privately operated bus services in meeting peak-period travel needs. The analysis indicates some potential for cost savings by contracting of selected peak-period or express operations to private carriers. The analytical material is specific to the Los Angeles, California area, but is illustrative of the options other medium and large urban areas can consider for transit evolution.
