Common use of Transit Service Performance Impacts Clause in Contracts

Transit Service Performance Impacts. Express Lanes (Miami Phase 1A) implementation has had a significant impact on the northbound travel times of 95 Express bus routes between downtown Miami and Golden Glades Interchange, with travel times on this 7.5 mile section decreasing from 25 minutes to 8 minutes on average. This has allowed Miami-Dade Transit to decrease scheduled northbound travel times from downtown Miami to Golden Glades Interchange from 32 to 22 minutes, now 10 minutes quicker than before and 10 minutes quicker than in the opposite direction. Service reliability, measured in terms of on-time performance, has remained unchanged although it was not possible to isolate the northbound direction only in the calculation of this metric. Service quantity on the 95 Express service, measured in terms of revenue miles, has decreased slightly by 7.0 percent while corridor bus service quantity decreased by 4.2 percent, the result of systemwide service cuts due to budget constraints. Parking capacity at Golden Glades Interchange has been fully utilized since summer 2008.
