On-board Passenger Counting

• The transit vehicle shall count passengers boarding and alighting.
• The passenger counts shall be related to location to support association of passenger counts with routes, route segments, or bus stops.
• The passenger counts shall be timestamped so that ridership can be measured by time of day and day of week.
• The transit vehicle shall send the collected passenger count information to the transit center.

Transit Center Passenger Counting

• The center shall collect passenger count information from each transit vehicle.
• The center shall calculate transit ridership data by route, route segment, transit stop, time of day, and day of week based on the collected passenger count information.
