Abstract This report presents an evaluation of the first-year start-up (system was operational mid-May to mid-September 2007) of the visitor shuttle system in the Giant Forest area of Sequoia National Park (SEKI). The visitor shuttle system design also includes an external shuttle or transit link, connecting the gateway communities of Visalia and Three Rivers to the park. The evaluation is intended to determine the impact of the visitor shuttle system on the goals, objectives and design criteria set forth by the park in a long history of both park management planning and derivative or tiered transportation project-specific planning.
