FIXED-ROUTE SYSTEM RIDERSHIP OVERVIEW - Explanation of Information

How to read this report

Introduction

This report shows how many customers used the combined METRO bus and rail systems in a given month and year-to-date. Ridership statistics are given on a

system-wide and route/station level basis as well as by weekday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Ridership is counted as boardings , or unlinked passenger trips (National Transit Database (NTD).

How are customers counted?

Bus

Boardings are recorded by automatic passenger counters (APCs) and passenger count cards. METRO has equipped 100% of its fixed-route bus fleet with automatic

passenger counters. The raw data are adjusted for missing data and APC under counting as approved in METRO's NTD alternative sampling methodology. Additionally,

there are certain routes for which passenger count cards are used due multiple fares on the same route (Route 236 San Jacinto / Baytown).

Rail

Boardings are recorded by automatic passenger counters (APCs). METRO has equipped 100% of its fixed-route rail fleet with automatic passenger counters.

The raw data are adjusted for missing data and APC under counting for Special Events as approved in METRO's NTD methodology.

How do I read the overview?

The next 3 pages provide an overview of the average daily boardings on local and Park & Ride bus and METRORail for weekday, Saturday, and Sunday for the current

month. Information is also presented for the 10 bus routes with the highest average daily ridership. The 10 bus routes with the highest average daily ridership

are also presented in graphical form compared to the average ridership for a weekday, Saturday, or Sunday route.

How do I compare this year to last year?

METRO implemented its New Bus Network on August 16, 2015. Every local bus route was changed as a result of the New Bus Network.

As a result, comparisons can only be done at the aggregate level and not at the bus route level at this time.

Are all days included in average daily boardings?

The average daily data cover the service operated on typical days in accordance with the normal schedule (for fixed schedule service). A typical day is a day on which

normal, regular service is operated. The average daily data does not include days when 1) extra service is provided to meet demands for special events (e.g., the Houston

Livestock Show and Rodeo), or 2) service consumed (or ridership) is reduced due to unusually bad weather (e.g., temperatures at or in excess of 100° or days with significant amounts of rainfall), or 3) holidays (e.g., Christmas). (From the 2014 NTD Policy Manual, Service Data Requirements, p. 74)

METROBus Indicators - Explanation of Information

How can I evaluate the ridership (demand) and the service resources supplied to each route (supply)?

METRO uses four indicators in its comparative / route ranking model. The four indicators are:

1) Passenger Boardings per Revenue Mile;

2) Passenger Boardings per Revenue Hour;

3) Total Subsidy per Passenger Boarding; and

4) Operating Ratio.

These four factors provide a balanced weighting between effectiveness measures (the first two factors), and efficiency measures (the last two factors).

By using the two effectiveness indicators, the reader can compare the effectiveness of multiple bus routes.

The indicator passenger boardings per revenue mile is calculated by dividing the number of average daily passenger boardings by route by the daily

number of revenue miles of service supplied on that route. The indicator passenger boardings per revenue hour is calculated by dividing the number

of average daily passenger boardings by the daily number of revenue hours of service supplied on that route.

The indicators are presented in two different formats on the following pages. The first format for presentation is by route number order. Route number

format allows the reader to look at the performance on one or more routes of interest. The second format for presentation is by indicator performance,

highest to lowest. For ease of viewing, an additional visual presentation format has been added. Routes with indicators in the first (best) quartile are

shown in white, while those in the second (next-best) quartile are shown in gray, those in the third quartile are shown in pink, and those in the fourth

(worst) quartile are shown in purple.

Additionally, the report includes charts showing the performance of the ten best and ten worst routes by indicator along with the average performance.

NOTE: The service levels used for these calculations are the current service levels, while the ridership used are an average since implementation

of New Bus Network.

Boardings/Revenue Mile


SEPTEMBER 2015 (FY2015)Composite of Boardings and Indicators by Route - Explanation of Information

How can I compare the weekday, Saturday, and Sunday services on a particular route?

The following section of the report presents the average daily boardings, boardings per revenue hour, and boardings per revenue mile

for each route. Some routes operate only on weekdays, while other routes operate on weekdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Cells that

would show data for Saturdays and Sundays where service is not operated are shaded for ease of viewing.

How can I compare the performance of a particular route within a given category?

METRO's Service Planning section has categorized each route into one of the following service categories:

Red - 15 Minutes Frequency

Blue - 20 - 30 Minutes Frequency

Green - 60 Minutes Frequency

Other - Non-Red, Blue, Green Routes

Park & Ride - CBD Peak Period

Park & Ride - CBD Off-Peak Period

Park & Ride - Secondary Activity Centers

A consolidated summary of average daily boardings, boardings per revenue hour, and boardings per revenue mile are provided.

Additionally, charts show a relative comparision of the performance of each of these service category groups in these two

effectiveness indicators for weekday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Core Routes - Explanation of Information

Introduction

Prior to Hurricanes Rita (September 2005) and Ike (September 2008), METRO developed a list of priority routes to be returned to service first after the

threat of damage had passed. The routes were chosen for their geographical coverage as well as for their ridership and / or service to one or more public hospitals.

With the implementation of the New Bus Network, the Core Routes were revised. The new Core Routes are those shown below:

The Core Routes are:

2 Bellaire

8 West Bellfort

20 Canal / Memorial

26 Long Point / Cavalcade

28 OST - Wayside

40 Heights / Telephone

50 Broadway

52 Hardy - Ley

54 Scott

56 Airline / Montrose

63 Fondren

65 Bissonnet

80 MLK / Lockwood

82 Westheimer

NOTE: FY2015 METRORAIL RIDERSHIP BASED ON 100% DATA METHODOLOGY. FY2014 METRORAIL DATA REVISED TO REFLECT ALTERNATE SAMPLING METHODOLOGY.

1) Calendar Mix. There was no change in the calendar mix between September 2015 relative to September 2014.

2) Fare Increase. There was no change in METRO's base fare between FY2015 and FY2014; However, METRO offered free fares August 16 - 22, 2015. A ridership increase would be expected due to free fares.

3) Gasoline Prices. Gasoline prices decreased by -33.4 % in September 2015 relative to September 2014. However, there is no statistical correlation between changes in gasoline prices and local bus ridership. The only statistical correlation

between gasoline prices and Park & Ride ridership occurred in FY2008 during the time period when the average price of a gallon of gasoline exceeded the maximum base fare for a Park & Ride (then $3.50). No ridership change

would have been expected due to the change in gasoline prices.

4) Special Events - METRORail. There were six special events in September 2015 compared to six special event in September 2014.

5) Service Interruptions - METRORail. There were 12 days of service interruptions in September 2015 compared to zero service interruptions in September 2014. Due to the increase in the number of

service interruptions, a ridership decrease would be expected.

6) Employment. There were 15K fewer people employed in August 2015 relative to July 2015. The unemployment rate in August 2015 was 4.6%, compared to 4.7% in July 2015 (Bureau of Labor Statistics). These data suggest that

the employment factor would be expected to have minimal impact at this time.

7) Weather. Average temperature of 80° and 2.27 inches of rainfall in September 2015 as compared to average temperature of 80° and 3.65 inches of rainfall in September 2014.

8) North Line Extension. The addition of 8 northbound and 8 southbound rail stations on the Red Line effective Saturday, December 21, 2013.

9) Central Station on the Red Line commenced operations effective February 18, 2015.

10) Green and Purple METRORail lines commenced operations effective May 23, 2015.

11) METRORail ridership adjusted for APC overcounting on Rail Car 320 from May 23 through August 6, 2015.

12) Local bus ridership adjusted to remove 344 Acres Homes Community Connector previously included.
