| Abstract | This Report presents findings from the 2019 Small Urban and Rural Transit Survey. The ITS JPO conducted this survey in response to a General Accountability Office (GAO) recommendation that the ITS JPO track ITS deployment in small urban and rural areas. The survey explores the use and usefulness of ITS technologies deployed by small urban and rural transit providers, along with reasons why the technologies are or are not being used. In addition, the survey addresses the challenges to deployment, the benefits of these technologies, and the sources of funding and technical support, including use of ITS JPO resources. The survey was administered September 9 – October 28, 2019 and achieved a 74 percent response rate, resulting in a final sample of 244 small urban and rural transit providers. Based on the survey findings, the Report also presents the ITS JPO and FTA with recommendations related to accelerating the deployment of ITS among small urban and rural transit providers. |
