ABSTRACT
A basic premise of this volume is that using transit service should be like eating potato chips-once you start, it’s hard to stop. The fundamental question, though, is how do we design and approach such aservice while knowing, because of the competition offered by cars, that an adequate transit design must provide superlative service in order to be good enough. This second edition of the book, following its rst edition (Ceder, 2007), will demonstratemethods and procedures not only for improving transit design through the provisionof an attractive, viable service but also for reducing its cost and increasing efciency from the transit agency perspective.
