This study identifies potential benefits to the economy of expanding public transit in the West Central Florida region. The West Central Florida MPO Chairs Coordinating Committee (CCC) includes a range of bus, bus rapid transit (BRT), and light rail services and facilities in its 2025 Regional Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) Needs Assessment. This analysis estimates the economic benefits that would accrue to the region if the 2025 Needs Assessment transit projects were fully implemented, as compared to implementing only the transit services for which funding has been committed through 2009.
