Monograph

This issue contains 10 papers concerned with the following aspects of transit: yield-to-bus electronic warning signs on transit buses; reserved bus lanes; life cycle costing of hybrid electric transit buses; innovative operating solutions for bus rapid transit through a congested segment; converting a two-way left-turn lane into a rub rapid transit lane; joint optimization of bus size, headway, and slack time; the dynamic multivehicle dial-a-ride problem; the static multidepot dial-a-ride problem; path-based vehicle routing through multiple hubs; and transportation and the built environment on college campuses.
