| Abstract | IN RECENT YEARS, there has been a growth of transportation services offering an alternative to the scheduled, fixed-route services available in urban areas. In addition, public transportation services are beginning to appear more often in nonurban areas. These developments have increased the need for vehicles other than the standard 40-foot transit bus. Small transit vehicles have lower seating capacities, greater maneuverability, and capital costs which are within the financial capabilities of the operators of these new services. |
