Abstract

This study focuses on transit initiatives provided by private companies to meet regional commute travel demand. Specifically, the research spotlights privately-­‐provided commuter buses that operate during peak hours and offer customer-­‐oriented routes with limited stops and coach amenities to suburban employment destinations. This type of service differs from those provided by intercity bus companies, including Greyhound, which are primarily intended for destination travel rather than routine commuting. Defined here, privately-­‐provided commuter bus service refers to the private provision of coach service to suburban employment sites from residential areas, service that may or may not be associated with a public transit agency.
