Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to provide a framework for transportation planning in rural areas with particular emphasis on the elderly. The first section considers the problem of demand estimation. The second discusses an analysis of transit costs. The third relates types of services and area served to the cost and demand analysis. The fourth addresses the critical question of how the transit systems can be financed. Finally, transit programs in rural Minnesota are considered.
