Title: What’s a Passing Grade? A Synthesis and Review of Multimodal Street Performance Measures
Accession Number: 01518832
Record Type: Component
Availability: Transportation Research Board Business Office 500 Fifth Street, NW Abstract: The authors examine four often-cited multimodal level of service (LOS) metrics (those of the cities of Fort Collins, Colorado and Charlotte, North Carolina; metrics developed by the San Francisco Department of Public Health, and the multimodal LOS metrics of the 2010 Highway Capacity Manual) and explore the differences between each metric. This literature synthesis provides an overview of each metric’s development and the variables used to calculate performance scores, as well as their ease of use and threats to their validity. Finally, the authors provide a critique of the metrics, focusing on how the use of single-outcome metrics (even differentiated by mode) may skew the understanding of street performance by masking considerable variation among users.
