Requests for evening service far outnumber all other requests received at the transit office. It is proposed that evening bus service be offered along the routes currently operated, but at one hour headways. Hours of operation would be from 6:30 p.m. till any hour from 10:00 p.m. on. 10:00 p.m. is an ideal time operationally, because it allows seven buses to be run for 16 hours a day, or two 8 -hour shifts. Also, the buses can be serviced earlier, at somewhat less expense. 12:30 a.m, is a much better time from the standpoint of coordination with Coralville Transit and Cambus. Both of these operations run until about 12:30 a.m. However, the night crew's hours would need to be extended until at least 2:30 a.m., and additional part-time drivers would be needed or substantial overtime would be required. A compromise solution might be to have the service run until 11:00 p.m., with all buses back at the barn by 11:30 p.m. The night crew would work two additional hours, and the runs could be covered by two full time shifts with approximately 45 minutes of overtime each. Assuming that service could be initiated on November 1st, when we hope to begin running our extra wintertime trippers, the cost in FY78 would be $94,450. If evening service was postponed until January, the cost for six months would be $70,840. MARKETING In the past, Iowa City Transit has done very little marketing. This phase of the transit business needs to be greatly expanded so that more people, particularly the off-peak riders, become aware of the transit service available. Iowa City Transit provides bus service to within 3 blocks of 90% of Iowa City's residents, operates from 6:30 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Although there are times when the buses are loaded to capacity, there are more times when the buses are cruising the streets virtually empty. At the same time, there are many people in Iowa City who could use the bus if they only knew when, where and how. A marketing program will help fill that need. By providing readily accessible infor- mation on why to use the bus and how to use the bus, patronage will increase. Costs are estimated to be on the order of $6,500. This includes radio advertising, newspaper advertising, and printing costs. REDUCED OFF-PEAK FARES Iowa City Transit, unlike many small -city operations, suffers from severe peak -period overloading. Unfortunately, our small fleet size does not permit the running of many peak -hour "trippers" to serve the rush-hour demand. Because we wish to service as many persons as possible, it would be desirable to encourage more people to ride during the off-peak times, so that crowded buses would not turn people away at rush hours. One method of encouraging this off-peak in- creased ridership would be to reduce off-peak fares. 614 0 0 It should be possible to decrease off-peak fares by 10t to 15t per ride, without a large decrease in overall revenue. In fact, if we could avoid putting on one or more extra trippers, or if the lower fare attracted new riders, the reduced off-peak fare would, to a certain extent, help pay for itself. If the fare is reduced by 10¢, from 25¢ to 15¢, the cost will be $33,287 per year. From November 1 to June 30, the cost would be approximately $23,000. SUNDAY SERVICE Iowa City Transit does not currently operate on Sundays and holidays. There are a substantial number of Iowa City residents who apparently would favor Sunday service; such service, however, could only be provided at a considerable expense. Ridership will likely be very low. Sunday service would appear to be a lower priority item. It would, however, probably be well received by the State, which is looking to improve local transit service in a manner that can be easily identified and measured. Cost Per Year = $60,100. Cost Nov. 1 -June 30 = $41,000. SAFETY AND FIRST AID TRAINING Iowa City bus drivers are out on the street 13 hours per day, 308 days per year. They are in responsible charge of a transit bus and its occupants. They have no ready means of communication with any emergency service. Sooner or later, every bus driver is faced with an emergency situation, such as a passenger becoming sick on the bus, a passenger falling on the steps, or a person being injured in an accident. Our drivers are completely unequipped to deal with such emergencies. As a repre- sentative of the City, as well as person -in -charge of the bus, each driver should have some first aid/CPR training. First Aid/CPR training of drivers would be a relatively inexpensive item; the time costs for the drivers participating in class sessions would be the greatest expense. The total cost for this project would be $4,140. It would be difficult to show direct and quantifiable improvement in service, but the training could save a life someday and might give driver morale a boost. SEATS AFTER-HOURS TAXI SERVICE Iowa City is funding a service for the elderly and handicapped through the Johnson County SEATS Program. This service ends at 5:00 p.m. most nights and there will be a need for taxi -service for after hours when SEATS is not operating. The SEATS dispatcher could arrange after-hours trips (up to perhaps 200 per month) with the cab company. The passenger would pay 50t per one-way trip and the City would pick up the remaining costs. At 200 riders per month, at an average trip cost of $2.00, for 8 months plus $500 administrative costs, the cost of this project would be $3,700. BUSES PAINTED Of the Iowa City bus fleet, 12 buses are 7 years old, 2 buses are 3 years old, and 3 buses are new. The paint on all of the older buses is faded and dull, and repainting would improve their appearance immensely. Also, the paint scheme on the new buses has been a disappointment, and repainting should make them more attractive. It is estimated that repainting would cost about $500 per bus, for a total cost of $8,500. The work would have to be postponed until Spring, as repainting will keep one bus out of service all the while, something that cannot be tolerated during the winter. This expenditure would not produce any measurable improvement in service, and for that reason may not be fundable by the State. If, however, bus painting was included in an overall marketing package, where a specific increase in ridership was targeted, such an expenditure might be justified. TRANSIT GARAGE STUDY/PROPERTY TAX REPLACEMENT Because the plans for a transit garage combined with a City equipment maintenance and storage facility have been abandoned, a new approach must be taken if a new bus barn is to become a reality. The first steps in this procedure must be the location of an appropriate site, the determination of building size requirements and equipment needs, and the development of construction plans. A consultant should be retained to perform these tasks, and it is estimated that such a study will cost about $25,000. Because this expenditure is neither a capital nor an operating item, but rather a planning expense, it cannot be funded directly through IDOT assistance. The suggested approach to funding this study is to apply for an equivalent amount of money to be used for our normal operating expenses (say salaries) and then use the property tax money freed up to finance the study. BUS DRIVER/CLERK TYPIST If Council adopts a substantial number of the projects listed in this report, there will be a significant increase in administrative effort. The City's experience with the HCDA Program succinctly reveals the folly of trying to implement a diversified complicated program with insufficient personnel. The projects simply do not get done. It is recommended that a bus driver/clerk typist be hired to free the Transit Manager for more pressing administrative tasks. This person would act as a clerk typist and would also be able to ferry buses and substitute for brief periods of time on routes. There should properly be a reluctance to add to the City Staff, but it should be recognized that continued and increasing reliance on Federal and State programs will inevitably mean a need for more personnel. The administrative time consumed in setting up evening service, marketing, and Sunday service is far more than meets the eye. Scheduling of drivers and personnel management consumes large amounts of time for the Transit Manager. Cost of the additional Bus Driver/Clerk Typist is calculated as follows: 8 months X $774/month = $6,192 20% fringe benefits = 1,238 TOTAL COST $7,430 , .... KNEELING BUS FEATURE A kit is available to convert the front suspension on all existing City buses so that they can drop approximately 4 inches. This feature is particularly desirable for the aged and infirm. The total cost of this project would be $6,800. SPECIALIZED ELDERLY AND HANDICAPPED TRANSPORTATION This project will provide SEATS service inside the City Limits of Iowa City. This item was approved under last year's IDOT grant application, but was never implemented. It will be made part of the FY78 grant, and the total cost for service from September 1 through June 30 will be approximately $28,000. TWO-WAY RADIOS Iowa City Transit is the only bus system of the three local operations that is not equipped with two-way radios. The need for good communication between the transit office and the bus drivers cannot be overstated - it is absolutely essential to safe and reliable bus service. Bus drivers on the street need to be able to contact the Transit garage for various reasons: 1. The bus breaks down and a replacement is needed immediately. 2. The driver needs to report a mechanical problem that will require a bus replace- ment whenever a spare can be brought out. 3. The driver becomes ill and needs to be relieved. 4. A relief driver has not showed up to drive, or no car is available to bring the driver getting off work back to the bus barn. 5. The driver needs to report an accident, a passenger becoming sick on the bus, or a disturbance occuring on the bus. At present, the only means of communication is the driver finding a telephone, investing a dime, and calling the garage. This is a particular poor system where help is needed immeditely or where a telephone is not at hand. The Transit office needs to contact individual bus drivers for these reasons: 1. To alert the driver to closed streets or other obstructions requiring detours along his route. 2. To remind the driver to stop in the Transit office to complete paperwork, or to see the manager or dispatcher. 3. To make the driver aware of break downs of other buses so that he can make adjustments to his route and/or schedule. 4. To advise the driver that his relief driver will not arrive as scheduled and to continue driving. 5. To check on schedule adherance. At present, the only method available for the Transit office to contact the individual bus driver is to have someone go out in an auto and meet him. This is a great waste of time and money, and also ties up one of the Transit cars. Bus Radio Costs = $29,300. Local Share = 5,860. BUS STOP SIGNING Bus stop signing has been of considerable interest for many years. The cost for this is calculated at: 500 signs X $50 per sign = $25,000. 20% Local Share = 5,000. BUS STOP AMENITIES Bus stop amenities consist of bus shelters at primary locations and bus benches at minors locations. Total cost is estimated at $13,200. REPLACEMENT BUS The City currently owns 17 new type buses and 1 dilapidated older unit. This winter after November 1, when trippers are instituted, the City will have 15 buses on the road. This leaves a reserve of 3, consisting of 2 new type buses and 1 old bus. The older bus is totally unsuitable for passenger service. Its suspension consists of leaf springs and the transmission and steering mechanism are almost inoperable by persons with moderate to average strength. The appearance of the bus and its operating characteristics are not consistent with the image and comfort the City is trying to provide to its riders. A used replacement bus of the new type look, in good mechanical condition, could be obtained for approximately $25,000. The local share would be $5,000 to be paid by the State Transit Assistance Fund. I ec1tv of Iowa o', MEMORANDUM. DATE, August 19, 1977 TO: Neal Berlin / City Council FROM: Richard J.

Ridership will likely be very low. Sunday Service Hourly headways - 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. Total Cost = $ 1,155. / Sunday Total Cost = $60,100. / Year Total Cost (Nov. - June) = $41,000 Sunday service would appear to be a lower priority item. It would, how- ever, probably be well received by the State, which is looking to improve local transit service in a manner that can be easily identified and meas- ured. 1 0 0 SAFETY AND FIRST AID TRAINI Iowa City bus drivers are out on the street 13 hours per day, 308 days per year. They are in responsible charge of a transit bus and its occupants. They have no ready means of communication with any emergency service. Sooner or later, every bus driver is faced with an emergency situation, such as a passenger becoming sick on the bus, a passenger falling on the steps, or a person being injured in an accident. Our drivers are completely unequipped to deal with such emergencies. As a representative of the City, as well as person -in -charge of the bus, each driver should have some first aid / CPR training. First Aid / CPR training of drivers would be a relatively inexpensive item; the time costs for the drivers participating in class sessions would be the greatest expense. First aid "Multi -Media" Course Instruction - Free Materials - $3.00 Time - 8 hours The total cost for this project would be $4,140. It would be difficult to show direct and quantifiable improvement in service, but the training could save a life someday and might give driver morale a boost. 0 0 SEATS AFTER-HOURS TAXI SERVICE Iowa City is funding a service for the elderly and handicapped through the Johnson County SEATS Program. This service ends at 5:00 p.m. most nights and there will be a need for taxi -service for after hours when SEATS is not operating. The SEATS dispatcher could arrange after-hours trips (up to perhaps 200 per month) with the cab company. The pass- enger would pay 50Q per one-way trip and the City would pick up the remain- ing costs. At 200 riders per month, at an average trip cost of $2.00, for 8 months plus $500 administrative costs, the cost of this project would be $3700. BUSES PAINTED Of the Iowa City bus fleet, 12 buses are 7 years old, 2 buses are 3 years old, and 3 buses are new. The paint on all of the older buses is faded and dull, and repainting would improve their appearance immensely. Also, the paint scheme on the new buses has been a disappointment, and repaint- ing should make them more attractive. It is estimated that repainting would cost about $500 per bus, for a total cost of $8500. The work would have to be postponed until Spring, as repainting will keep one bus out of service all the while, something that cannot be tolerated during the winter. This expenditure would not produce any measurable improvement in service, and for that reason may not be fundable by the State. If, however, bus painting was included in an overall marketing package, where a specific increase in ridership was targeted, such an expenditure might be justified. 0 0 TRANSIT GARAGE STUDY / PROPERTY TAX REPLACEMENT Because the plans for a transit garage combined with a City equipment maint- enance and storage facility have been abandoned, a new approach must be taken if a new bus barn is to become a reality. The first steps in this procedure must be the location of an appropriate site, the determination of building size requirements and equipment needs, and the development of con- struction plans. A consultant should be retained to perform these tasks, and it is estimated that such a study will cost about $25,000. Because this expenditure is neither a capital nor an operating item, but rather a planning expense, it cannot be funded directly through NOT assis- tance. The suggested approach to funding this study is to apply for an equivalent amount of money to be used for our normal operating expenses (say salaries) and then use the property tax money freed up to finance the study. 0 0 BUS DRIVER / CLERK TYPIST If Council adopts a substantial number of the projects listed in this report, there will be a significant increase in administrative effort. The City's experience with the HCDA Program succinctly reveals the folly of trying to implement a diversified complicated program with insufficient personnel. The projects simply do not get done. It is recommended that a bus driver / clerk typist be hired to free the Transit Manager for more pressing administrative tasks. This person would act as a clerk typist and would also be able to ferry buses and substitute for brief periods of time on routes. There should properly be a reluctance to add to the City Staff, but it should be recognized that continued and increasing reliance on Federal and State programs will inevitably mean a need for more personnel. The administrative time consumed in setting up evening service, marketing, and Sunday service is far more than meets the eye. Scheduling of drivers and personnel management consumes large amounts of time for the Transit Manager. Cost of the additional Bus Driver / Clerk Typist is calculated as follows: 8 months X $774 / month = $6,192 20% fringe benefits = 1,238 Total $7,430 N KNEELING BUS FEATURE A kit is available to convert the front suspension on all existing City buses so that they can drop approximately 4 inches. This feature is particularly desirable for the aged and infirm. The total cost of this project would be $6,800. TWO - 'WAY RADIOS Iowa City Transit is the only bus system of the three local operations that is not equipped with two-way radios. The need for good communication between the transit office and the bus drivers cannot be overstated - it is absolutely essential to safe and reliable bus service. a) Bus drivers on the street need to be able to contact the Transit garage for various reasons: 1. The bus breaks down and a replacement is needed immediately. 2. The driver needs to report a mechanical problem that will require a bus replacement whenever a spare can be brought out. 3. The driver becomes ill and needs to be relieved. 4. A relief driver has not showed up to drive, or no car is avail- able to bring the driver getting off work back to the bus barn. 5. The driver needs to report an accident, a passenger becoming sick on the bus, or a disturbance occuring on the bus. At present, the only means of communication is the driver finding a telephone, investing a dime, and calling the garage. This is a particularly poor system where help is needed immediately or where a telephone is riot at hand. b) The transit office needs to contact individual bus drivers for still other reasons: 1. To alert the driver to closed streets or other obstructions requiring detours along his route. 2. To remind the driver to stop in the transit office to complete paperwork, or to see the manager or dispatcher. 3. To make the driver aware of break -downs of other buses so that he can make adjustments to his route and/or schedule. 4. To advise the driver that his relief driver will not arrive as scheduled and to continue driving. 5. To check on schedule adherance. At present, the only method available for the transit office to contact the individual bus driver is to have someone go out in an auto and meet him. This is a great waste of time and money, and also ties up one of the transit cars. Bus Radio Costs: 18 bus units @ $1325/ea. = $23,850 2 auto units @ 1175/ea. = 2,350 1 fixed based unit 3,100 Total $29,300 The local share of this would be = $5,860 0 BUS STOP SIGNING Bus stop signing has been of considerable interest for many years. The cost for this is calculated at: 500 signs X $50.00 per sign = $25,000 20`d Local Share = $5,000 0 0 BUS STOP AMENITIES Bus stop amenities consist of bus shelters at primary locations and bus benches at minor locations. Total cost is estimated at $13,200. 0 0 REPLACEMENT BUS The City currently owns 17 new type buses and 1 dilapidated older unit. This winter after November 1, when trippers are instituted, the City will have 15 buses on the road. This leaves a reserve of 3, consisting of 2 new type buses and 1 old bus. The older bus is totally unsuitable for passenger service. Its suspension consists of leaf springs and the trans- mission and steering mechanism are almost inoperable by persons with moderate to average strength. The appearance of the bus and its operating character- istics are not consistent with the image and comfort the City is trying to provide to its riders. A used replacement bus of the new type look, in good mechanical condition, could be obtained for approximately $25,000. The local share would be $5,000 to be paid by the State Transit Assistance Fund. The above list of items should be considered at the August 22 informal Council meeting and the list added to if Council desires. It is suggested that no items be deleted and no firm decisions be made at this meeting. Attempts should be made to get maximum media coverage of this list of items. On September 6 a public hearing should be held on the list and public input received. No decision should be made at this meeting, however, Council should start formulating definite and firm opinions about the items to be funded. On September 12 Council should hold an informal meeting and substantially finalize the Grant items that are to be included in the application. At the September 20 public hearing the list should be in a final form. Changes can be made at this point, but the changes should be on only 1 or 2 items and not the entire list.

It would provide the greatest relief to those segments of roadway which would otherwise operate most poorly. Sections of roadway which would remain below Level C service standards fall into three categories: Those on which traffic volumes would be significantly lowered such as the Iowa Avenue and Burlington Street river crossings. Isolated links requiring detailed studies of operational improvements of types not covered in this corridor analysis. Those whose potential demands will not appear unless and until postulated sizable developments are actually built. -21- • 0 To check the effects of the Level 3.5 Transit/NPA rates, the entire 1995 auto trip table was factored to reflect the diversion of Itrips to other modes in the same manner as that described for the Level I5 analysis. The remaining auto trips were assigned to- the 1975 Existing and Committed network using the capacity restraint loading procedure to I. determine how effectively the Level 3.5 diversion would avert potential capacity deficiencies. The comparisons of the number of miles of roadway expected to operate below Level of Service C between the full trip table assignment and the Level 3.5 trip table assignment, shown in Table 5 below, indicates that this level of transit diversion would be effective I' in precluding much of the congestion to be expected otherwise.
