Development of dedicated transitways that link major nodes of activity providing a travel <br />time advantage to transit vehicles. The transitways (busways, HOV lanes, LRT commuter <br />rail, etc) should offer exclusive right-of-way for transit vehicles only. They should include <br />a range of technologies from buses to rail services, depending on the characteristics of <br />specific travel corridors. <br /> <br />The emphasis of the transitways is to provide transit service with a competitive advantage <br />over the automobile--a strategy that has been effective in many urban corridors throughout <br />the country. Most major metropolitan areas in the country have embarked on the <br />development of some type of dedicated transit facilities. In many cases, several <br />technologies (i.e. buses, light rail and commuter rail) successfully exist within the same <br />region. <br /> <br />Northstar Corridor Major Investment Study <br />Section 1 - Introduction <br />10-28-98 <br /> <br />1-3 <br /> <br /> <br />
