OSTI ID:5832728
This study attempts to forecast the impacts of the construction phase of new transit facilities in metropolitan areas. The purpose of the study is to identify and develop an approach, a model and an appropriate methodology to simulate and forecast economic impacts of UMTA-funded new mass-transit systems or any additions to mass-transit facilities in metropolitan areas. Using a forecasting and simulations model conjoined with a 490-sector input/output model, simulated forecasts were generated, predicting the effect of new facilities on the local economy of four UMTA-funded mass-transit systems located in Atlanta, Georgia; Boston, Massachusetts; San Francisco, California; and Washington, D.C.
