A 2025-2044 framework from data.ny.gov assesses potential transit projects using consistent models. It evaluates projects based on criteria like ridership, time savings, network resilience, capacity, equity, and cost. The most promising projects may advance for further study and inclusion in future capital plans.
Use Cases
- Ranking potential projects by Value score for capital planning.
- Analyzing the distribution of Project types across evaluation Categories.
- Comparing project benefits like ridership and time savings across different Categories.
- Identifying high-cost, high-leverage projects using the Value and Category fields.
Strengths
- Evaluation framework spans a 20-year future period (2025-2044).
- Projects assessed using a consistent set of eight defined criteria.
Limitations
- Unknown sample size of evaluated projects.
- Limited to three provided data columns (Value, Category, Project).
- Potential geographic bias focused on the New York MTA service area.
