Transit Accessibility
Transit Accessibility measures how easily people can reach destinations using public transportation, considering factors like service frequency, travel time, transfers, and walking distance to stops. It is a key equity metric for evaluating transit system performance.
Transit Accessibility is a measure of how well public transportation connects people to the destinations they need to reach, accounting for walking distance to stops, wait times based on service frequency, in-vehicle travel time, transfer requirements, and the distribution of opportunities at reachable destinations. Unlike simple coverage metrics that only consider proximity to a transit stop, accessibility captures the full travel experience from origin to destination.

Comparative analysis between transit and automobile accessibility reveals the competitive gap that influences mode choice. Applications include transit equity analysis that measures whether low-income and minority communities have adequate access to jobs and services, service planning that identifies routes and schedules with the greatest accessibility impact per dollar invested, transit-oriented developmentTransit-Oriented DevelopmentTransit-Oriented Development (TOD) is an urban planning strategy that concentrates housing, jobs, and amenities aroun... evaluation that quantifies how development near stations improves regional accessibility, and health outcome research that correlates transit access with healthcare utilization and health disparities. Transit accessibility metrics increasingly inform federal funding decisions and state transportation policy.
