18. UMTA, Summary Report, p. 70. It is also interesting to note that although the accessible transit policy is focused primarily on wheelchair users, who constitute a 5.5 percent vocal minority of all transportation handicapped, surveys show that a majority claim to be unable to use it due to other barriers. 19.

This estimate is based on assumptions of operating six days per week and 12 hours per day, a load factor of 6 passenger trips per vehicle hour, and a spare ratio of 1.13. The capital cost of $15,000 per van was amortized at 10 percent over a seven-year vehicle life. These assumptions were drawn from David T. Hartgen and David L. Weiss, Cost-Effective Bus Transit Barrier Removal Policies for Elderly and Handicapped. Preliminary Research Report 118, New York State Department of Transportation, July 1977, pp. 10-13. 22.

Among transit agencies that have put substantial numbers of accessible buses into service to date, the St. Louis system has the most experience. Wheelchair users have been averaging from 4 to 8 trips per day on a system which was operating 90 to 180 accessible buses. This is the equivalent of 1 wheelchair trip per 320 scheduled accessible bus runs. As one analyst pointed out, this number of trips could have been handled by one demand responsive van at less than 10 percent of the operating cost and less than 2 percent of the capital cost.
