- W641007568 abstract "A transit agency that wishes to introduce an LRT system with balanced total costs (capital and operating costs versus LRT performance) and aesthetic acceptability must make a number of significant decisions in determining the final type of system configurations to be used. These issues are addressed during the feasibility and conceptual engineering stages. The application of technology for the key LRT fixed systems has been summarized. Factors that affect the cost-effective design and specification of track and roadbed, traction power, signals, and fare collection have been stressed. Each is an important element of the overall LRT system, and each can be designed to enhance system economics by controlling capital and operating costs. An attempt has also been made to show that these total costs must be balanced against LRT system performance for a given induced ridership. For LRT, the balance is bounded on both the lower and the upper ends of its spectrum. An excursion either way removes the LRT right-to-be. In today's difficult financial environment for rail transit systems, designers are encouraged to seek out and apply balanced cost solutions such as those described in this paper. Only by planning and building cost-effective systems will most American cities be able to afford the benefits of modern rail transit service. (Author)" @default.
