Abstract:The first objective of this study is to identify transit firms already cooperating in providing consolidated transit services and study their characteristics, and the levels and types of cooperation that exist between them. A second objective is to identify from management the perceived advantages, and obstacles/impediments of the cooperative efforts while the third is to develop criteria to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of the cooperative efforts. Lastly, it is the objective of this study to design a blueprint for collaboration which minimizes the potential and known pitfalls for carrying out interagency cooperative agreements for coordinated transit services. The accomplishments of these objectives should lead to a specification of procedures to achieve efficiency and effectiveness in setting up inter-agency collaboration arrangements for providing transit services.
