From page 73...
... 73 Conclusions Maintaining transit assets, such as vehicles, guideway, and facilities in good repair enables transit agencies to maximize the quality of the service they provide and minimize transit agency and passenger costs over time. As assets deteriorate, they tend to become more unreliable, require more maintenance, and become more likely to fail in service.
From page 74...
... 74 The Relationship Between Transit Asset Condition and Service Quality further increase in EJT of 6 to 8%, relative to the base case with minimal speed restrictions. The EJT changes can be equated to user costs by multiplying EJT by the value of time.
From page 75...
... Conclusions 75 studies were unsuccessful. Further research is needed to better determine how asset conditions affect perceptions, independently from the actual performance of the asset.
