Transit Mode Share Sample Clauses
The Transit Mode Share clause defines the proportion of total trips or commutes that must be made using public transportation within a specified area or for a particular project. In practice, this clause may require developers, employers, or municipalities to monitor and report the percentage of people using buses, trains, or other transit options, and sometimes to implement measures that encourage transit use, such as providing transit passes or improving access to stations. Its core function is to promote sustainable transportation, reduce reliance on private vehicles, and help meet environmental or urban planning goals.

Transit Mode Share. Table 21 shows the transit mode share between 2008 and 2010, defined as the proportion of peak period person throughput carried by the 95 Express bus service. Although ridership on the 95 Express Bus has increased between 2008 and 2010, transit’s percentage of mode share in the Express Lanes has declined slightly. It declined 2 ½ percentage points in the
a. m. and slightly less than 1 percentage point in the p.m. The decline is due mainly to the influx of toll paying single occupant vehicles in the Express Lanes.
