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 both the current

month as compared to the same month last year and for the current fiscal year-to-date as compared to the previous fiscal year-to-date. Information is also presented

for the 10 bus routes with the highest average daily ridership, the highest growth between FY2012 and FY2013, and the highest loss between FY2012 and FY2013

for weekday, Saturday, and Sunday. 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?

Boardings data are presented on an average daily basis for ease of comparison. For example, Route 1 Hospital - weekday had 4,643 average daily boardings during

FY2013 (October 2012 - September 2013) as compared to 4,408 average daily boardings during FY2012 (October 2011 - September 2012). The change in ridership between

FY2012 and FY2013 was + 235 boardings or 5.3%. This percentage increase was higher for Route 1 Hospital than for the average of all weekday routes ( + 2.9%).

A similar presentation is done for each METRORail station.

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 NTD 2012 Annual Reporting Manual, Service form (S-10), p. 192)

Why do some route numbers have two different names?

One means of improving operational efficiency is the use of a single bus on multiple bus routes that each serve downtown. Bus routes that are combined in this

manner are through-routed or "hooked." For example, Route 3 Langley and Route 3 West Gray are "hooked" and share the same bus equipment. Currently, METRO

operates 14 weekday through-routed / "hooked" route combinations. Ridership allocations for hooked routes are adjusted annually.

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. (NOTE: With only 1 rail line, there is no

opportunity to compare effectiveness with other rail lines in METRO's system at this time.)

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 year-to-date.

SEPTEMBER 2013 (FY2013)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 only on weekdays and Saturdays. 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:

Local - Radial

Local - Crosstown

Local - Circulator

Local - Limited

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.

SOURCE: RASE Revised

1) Calendar Mix. There was one more weekday and one less Saturday in September 2013 relative to September 2012.

2) Fare Increase. There was no change in METRO's base fare between FY2013 and FY2012. No ridership change would have been expected due to fares.

3) Gasoline Prices. Gasoline prices decreased by 9.5% in September 2013 relative to September 2012. 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 two special events in September 2013 (2 Texans' games) compared to four special events in September 2012 (2 Texans' games, 1 Museum Day,

and one Warner promotion). A decrease in ridership would be expected as a result of the two fewer special event.

Special Events - METRORail and METROBus. METRO offered free fares on all local buses and trains on Monday, September 1 (Labor Day) as part of the Labor Day Weekend Free Fare promotion. A ridership

increase would be expected as a result of the free fares.

5) Service Interruptions - METRORail. There were three partial service interruptions and two full service interruptions (September 22 - 23) in September 2013 compared to zero in September 2012. A decrease in

ridership would be expected as a result of the increased number of service interruptions.

6) Employment. There were 53.7K more people employed in August 2013 relative to September 2012. The unemployment rate in August 2013 was 6.1%, compared to 6.3% in September 2012 (Bureau

of Labor Statistics). A positive ridership change would be expected due to the improved employment picture.

7) Weather. Average temperature of 82° and 2.51 inches of rainfall in September 2013 as compared to average temperature of 80° and 2.01° inches in August 2012. There were 2 weather days (one for

maximum temperature in excess of 100° and one for rain) in September 2013 compared to zero weather days in September 2012. A decline in ridership would be expected as a result of the two weather days

in September 2013.
