Data-Driven Bike-Share Ridership Prediction and Network Optimization
… This dissertation develops integrated models for ridership prediction, station placement optimization, and electrification planning to address these challenges. First, a customized Graph Neural Network framework using GraphSAGE is introduced for station-to-station ridership prediction, integrating …

A Fare Approach to Attracting Transit Ridership After COVID-19
… COVID-19 global pandemic substantially depressed ridership on transit agencies across North America. While much is still unknown about the anticipated return of transit ridership after the pandemic, the exacerbation of previous work-from-home trends due to continued remote work policies can …

Exploring Transit Ridership Using Census, Routing & Scheduling, and Stop Characteristic Data
… improvements through analysis and application of ridership, Census, routing and scheduling, and transit stop characteristic data. Regression trees identify and rank independent variables that split dependent variable datasets into meaningful subsets according to significant relationships with …

The relationship between rail transit ridership and built environment and transportation system
… the relationship between rail transit station ridership and the factors categorized into three groups: transportation system, built environment, and socio-demographics. The stations of Boston's rail transit system are analyzed. The method used is the direct demand approach with OLS regression. …

Behavioral dynamics of public transit ridership in Chicago and impacts of COVID-19
Public transportation ridership analysis in the United States has traditionally centered around the tracking and reporting of the count of trips taken on the system. Such analysis is valuable but incomplete. This work presents a ridership analysis framework that keeps the rider, rather than the …

On the Relationship Between Spatial-Temporal Outdoor Thermal Comfort Simulations and Bike Ridership
… the UTCI simulations and publicly available bike ridership data from Bluebikes, Boston’s bike-sharing program, the relationship between bike ridership patterns and UTCI values along each route is studied. Supervised machine learning models are applied to predict bike ridership based on UTCI and …

Predicting Ridership and Travel Time Impacts of Bus Service Changes Using Sketch Planning Methods
… in scale, and understanding their impacts on ridership and travel times can inform decision-making as changes are considered for the bus network. Budgetary limitations are at the heart of service change decisions, resulting in the need for analysts to assess different scenarios and accommodate …

Walking to transit – using big data to analyze bus and train ridership in Los Angeles
… improving public transportation. Public transit ridership has been declining despite hefty investments, and it is important to understand why transit has not picked up. Studying current pedestrian-induced ridership is crucial as walkability is key in affecting ridership. Many prior studies assume …

"A transit pass in everyone's hand?" : implementing Unlimited Access Pass programs as a strategy to increase transit ridership
(cont.) ridership growth induced by UAP programs. The lessons learned are then applied in form of a university pass program at the MBTA in Boston, suggesting program designs, pricing alternatives and estimating impacts on the transit agency, universities and unlimited access pass holders.

Public transportation is not going to work : non-work travel markets for the future of mass transit
… to identify non-work travel markets with strong ridership potential. Nationwide data sources indicate that about half of all transit trips in the largest US cities are non-work trips, and that non-work travel has contributed to transit ridership growth in 13 of 20 large US cities. Based on these …
