Summary

"The Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual (TCQSM) is intended to be a fundamental reference document for public transit practitioners and policy makers. The manual contains background, statistics, and graphics on the various types of public transportation, and it provides a framework for measuring transit availability and quality of service from the passenger point of view. The manual contains quantitative techniques for calculating the capacity of bus, rail, and ferry transit services, and transit stops, stations, and terminals. Example problems are included. Material from this document that is relevant to traffic engineering is also included in Chapters 14, "Transit Concepts," and Chapter 27, "Transit," of the Highway Capacity Manual 2000, which is available from TRB in printed and CD-ROM versions." --Foreword
