F-1 A P P E N D I X F Maps of Ridesourcing and Transit Demand and CapacityAppendix F: Maps of Ridesourcing and Transit Demand and Capacity The maps in this secon (Figures F-1 through F-21) depict esmates of scheduled public transit capacity and wait me alongside indicators of ridesourcing demand and capacity derived from queries of the Uber API, with data aggregated to the zip code (ZCTA) level. The methodology is described in Appendix E. For each of the seven study cites, maps are shown for the weekday morning peak (7-10am), a‡ernoon peak (4-7pm), and weekend late night periods (10pm-3am). Each figure displays the following data at the ZCTA level for each me period: Scheduled transit (le‡-hand maps) • Seat-stops per hour (number of stop locaons * number of stop events * vehicle capacity), represented by the depth of the red color gradient • Average wait me in minutes (headway), represented by the direcon of crosshatching Ridesourcing (right-hand maps) • Average wait me in minutes, shown by the depth of the green color gradient • Maximum surge mulplier, represented by the direcon of crosshatching Data sources: Transit agency GTFS feeds (transit data), Uber API (ridesourcing data), U.S. Census TIGER/Line (geography).

There are issues, opportunities, and challenges related to technology-enabled mobility services, and lots of ways that transit can learn from, build upon, and interface with new ways of traveling.

The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's TCRP Report 188: Shared Mobility and the Transformation of Public Transit examines the relationship of public transportation (including paratransit and demand-responsive services) to shared modes, including bikesharing, carsharing, microtransit, and ridesourcing services provided by companies such as Uber and Lyft.

A supplemental infographic summarizes the aspects of of the sharing economy and its intersection with transit.
