Sorry, I was not clear with regard to the losses in transit share - I
only implied that transit was not able to capture its share of overall
growth in person trips in several metropolitan areas. Was that a
surprise for planners?
On another note, commute time would have been even higher if it were not
for the declining transit share as a percentage. And auto-ownership may
have peaked too - as the increases are not as apparent as from
1980-1990.
Here is the data I was looking at for both carpool & transit.
Thanks.
