Bus rapid transit and transit-oriented development in Austin, TXMarx, Michelle 20 November 2013 (has links)
The Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority is currently in the stages of implementing Austin’s first bus rapid transit line along one of the city’s principal urban corridors. The line will run approximately 20 miles, along North Lamar, Guadalupe and South Congress Avenue. Considering the key role that land use patterns play in determining ridership for mass transit systems, transit agencies are increasingly pursuing strategies to encourage transit-oriented development as a means of securing the success of their transit investments. Considering the relatively intense uses already existing along this corridor, the location of some of the city’s primary institutions along it, and its general importance in defining the “image” of the city, this corridor seems ideally situated to absorb significant density increases. The focus of this study, therefore, is to evaluate the general need for increased densities and transit-supportive development along Austin’s BRT starter route, to examine the overall ability of bus-based transit to generate development pressures, to outline some of the land use policies necessary for encouraging TOD, and finally, to suggest an ideal planning approach for encouraging transit-supportive development along Austin’s BRT corridor. / text

Bus rapid transit service quality analysis : a case study of HefeiLiu, Xiyuan, 刘析远 January 2014 (has links)
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) system is a newly developed urban transit mode. It was introduced into China market and achieved speedy development in the last decade. Until now, more than 20 cities have already established their own BRT system and put into operation. However, public transport operators in China cities do not give enough attention to the quality of service provided by the BRT system. As a consequence, lack of attraction is one of the major barriers for BRT system widely development.
In this situation, this study established a framework for BRT service quality analysis and applied it in Hefei BRT Route 1. This framework integrates both objective and subjective scenario. In subjective scenario, a customer satisfaction survey is conducted for BRT passengers. In the survey, customers’ satisfaction levels towards different aspects of BRT service and their travel characteristics are collected. With the results of data analysis, objective measurement is followed. Objective measurement focuses on service performance measurement. Such measurement is based on criteria for public transit level of service. Combining the results of the customer satisfaction survey and site observation, a comprehensive assessment of a transit system’s quality of service can be conducted.
By analyzing the BRT system’ service quality, improvement recommendations to current BRT system in terms of BRT running way, BRT station, BRT vehicle and BRT operation system are proposed. Additionally, for better BRT service evaluation, special criteria for level of BRT service are required in future research. / published_or_final_version / Transport Policy and Planning / Master / Master of Arts in Transport Policy and Planning

The Marketing Strategy of Real Estate around Kaohsiung MRT Exit area - take R13 as exampleYang, Ping-hui 27 August 2007 (has links)
In order for a city to maintain keep continuous development, it must have a convenient public transportation system. Of all the public transportation, the MRT is one of the most important transportation because it is not affected by any traffic jams and it even saves you the trouble of looking for a parking space. Therefore, the convenience of the MRT will make it the choice of residents in general.
In this research, it appears that the population in Kaohsiung is rapidly increasing. According to the statistics, the population from 1991 to 2006 has increased from 100,000 to 118,281. Tsoying District appears to have increased the most from 70,000 to 74,847. However, the data shows that the other districts remain stable. So that the traditional area shows moving out due to the limitation of land. Because of the land plan anew still have a land not to develop around Tsoying District, therefore the surrounding suburb and district has people moving into the area. That¡¦s why this area is targeted among as a Kaohsiung MRT Exit area. (R13)
The MRT will run business from the end of 2007. The consumer behavior of purchasing house around the MRT exit area and the real estate agency face and handle the changes to promote the product itself. To combine the theory and the practicality of this marketing. We use the 4Ps: Product, Place, Promotion and the Price.
This research shows that real estate is a high involvement purchasing behavior, this is deal with million to billion, different consumers have their different needs and request. First-time buyer will be concerned with the total price, bank loan and bank interest. People who already have a house or they want to trade into a bigger house will be concerned with the functionality of this living area, the standard of life, the environment and schools. For the Mansion Group, people will be concerned with the location and uniqueness. Therefore, real estate agents need to focus on their Target Market in order to create niches.

Invesitgating Risk Factors Invovled in an International Joint Venture Construction Project:- A Case Study of Kaohsiung Mass Rapid TransitYao, Tsu-Chiang 13 June 2005 (has links)
Since Taiwan became a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO), the government has opened the market for foreign contractors to tender for major public works within the country. Some of the international construction companies from Germany, Japan, Malaysia, Holland, Korea, Singapore etc had set up their branch office in Taiwan to compete ambitiously with the local construction companies .
Many exclusive investment projects in Taiwan was implemented in bigger scale since 1998. For instance , among the 11 packages of the Kaohsiung Metropolitan Mass Rapid Transit (KMRT) Project, the smallest package is worth NTD 500 million while the biggest package amounting to NTD 900 million. Such projects characterized by its large size, huge capital injection, high technical expertise requirement, sophisticated system consolidation as well as multiple interfacing works which is beyond the capabilities of the local traditional construction companies . Partnership especially joint venture with foreign construction companies has became a better resolution for local construction companies .
Although joint venture has the advantages of risk sharing, technology transfer , professional advice and profit sharing, however the differences in culture of the joint venture companies, management style, financial strength, expertise and size of related companies has caused a number of problems and uncertainties.
This dissertation was an in-depth study on risk assessment of international contractor in a joint venture company implementing one of the packages of KMRT projects. Based on the information collected, interviews with the executives and various analysis, it can be summarized as below : -
External risk factors: Foreign contractors should evaluate the possibility on change of related laws and strategies by the local government in order to formulate a versatile contingency plan. They should be more selective while choosing a local partner. This partner should have the first hand information with respect to the local resources, good relationship with local community and politician to reduce the non-professional risk. They should be more conservative on the evaluation of the local government administrative performance.
Project risk factors: There should be ample time allocated to discuss the Main Contract Agreement . It is suggested to be carried out in two stages : Firstly, a simplified main contract to be drafted. Secondly, a more define and explicit addendum to main contract to be appended progressively so that every aspect of the contractual issues can be studied and discussed in great detail . This will provide a fair basic for interpretation of the main contract for client and the main contractor ( JV). The right and liabilities on land acquisition, demolition of landed properties , compensation to the owners, construction period, delay and various contractual claim issues should be scrutinize thoroughly.
Internal risk factors : The project execution strategies should be prepared and accepted collectively to avoid misunderstanding on technology transfer, safety & quality assurance, progress control and profit distribution among the members of the Joint Venture during the course of the works.
