1'�'�,�r�R� E������ar��� ��ar�d��'�� <br />The primary perforinai�ce standards to measure service are Subsidy per Passenger a��d <br />Passengers per In-Service �-�o�zr. �'erfor�nance standards are used to evaluate the relative <br />productivity and efficiency of the services provided. To be responsible and dynamic, a transit <br />syste�n mt�st consistently measure and adjust service in unproductive routes at�d address <br />insufficient service in productive areas. The use of two regional performance standards provides <br />better insight into the operational and financial perfortnat�ce of individual routes and services. <br />��b��c�� per Passenger <br />Subsidy or net cost is the difference between the total cost of providing service offset by revenue <br />from passenger fares. Subsidy per passenger represents the net cost divided by the number of <br />passengers using the service. This standard identifies services that are not operating within <br />efficiency ranges and focuses corrective actions for those services. Subsidy thresholds are <br />determined by calculating the non-weighted subsidy per passenger average within each service <br />classification plus fixed percentage deviations from that average. <br />Passengers per in-Service Hour <br />The passenger per in-service hour standard establishes a minimum threshold of performance for <br />light rail transit, big bus fixed route service, small bus fixed route service and paratransit <br />operations. Passengers per in-service hour represents the total passengers carried divided by the <br />in-service time. This measure is most oflen calculated at the route level, but can also be <br />measured less rigidly at a trip level. <br />r- �o <br />
