Abstract

This report documents successful practices in the United States and Canada, and presents information on efforts employed to achieve optimal bus fleet size and effective spare bus ratios. The synthesis is designed to provide guidance to transit agencies on how various factors may affect optimal fleet size. Appendix D: 'Compilation of agency survey responses' was not included in the print or PDF version of TCRP Synthesis 109. It is, however, available for download at http://onlinepubs.trb.org/onlinepubs/tcrp/tcrp_syn_109AppD.pdf. (Author/publisher)
