FIXED-ROUTE SYSTEM RIDERSHIP OVERVIEW - Explanation of Information
How to read this report
Introduction
This report shows how many customers used the combined METRO bus and rail systems in a given month and year-to-date. Ridership statistics are given on a
system-wide and route/station level basis as well as by weekday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Ridership is counted as boardings , or unlinked passenger trips (National Transit Database (NTD).
How are customers counted?
Bus
Boardings are recorded by automatic passenger counters (APCs) and passenger count cards. METRO has equipped 100% of its fixed-route bus fleet with automatic
passenger counters. The raw data are adjusted for missing data and APC under counting as approved in METRO's NTD alternative sampling methodology. Additionally,
there are certain routes for which passenger count cards are used due multiple fares on the same route (Route 236 San Jacinto / Baytown).
Rail
Boardings are recorded by automatic passenger counters (APCs). METRO has equipped 100% of its fixed-route rail fleet with automatic passenger counters.
The raw data are adjusted for missing data and APC under counting for Special Events as approved in METRO's NTD methodology.
How do I read the overview?
The next 3 pages provide an overview of the average daily boardings on local and Park & Ride bus and METRORail for weekday, Saturday, and Sunday for both the current
month as compared to the same month last year and for the current fiscal year-to-date as compared to the previous fiscal year-to-date. Information is also presented
for the 10 bus routes with the highest average daily ridership, the highest growth between FY2012 and FY2013, and the highest loss between FY2012 and FY2013
for weekday, Saturday, and Sunday. The 10 bus routes with the highest average daily ridership are also presented in graphical form compared to the average ridership
for a weekday, Saturday, or Sunday route.
How do I compare this year to last year?
Boardings data are presented on an average daily basis for ease of comparison. For example, Route 1 Hospital - weekday had 4,407 average daily boardings during
FY2015 (October 2014 - January 2015) as compared to 4,774 average daily boardings during FY2014 (October 2014 - January 2015). The change in ridership between
FY2015 and FY2014 was ( - 367) boardings or ( - 7.7%). This percentage decrease was lower for Route 1 Hospital than for the average of all weekday routes ( - 2.8%).
A similar presentation is done for each METRORail station.
Are all days included in average daily boardings?
The average daily data cover the service operated on typical days in accordance with the normal schedule (for fixed schedule service). A typical day is a day on which
normal, regular service is operated. The average daily data does not include days when 1) extra service is provided to meet demands for special events (e.g., the Houston
Livestock Show and Rodeo), or 2) service consumed (or ridership) is reduced due to unusually bad weather (e.g., temperatures at or in excess of 100° or days with significant amounts of rainfall), or 3) holidays (e.g., Christmas). (From the NTD 2013 Annual Reporting Manual, Service form (S-10), p. 179)
Why do some route numbers have two different names?
One means of improving operational efficiency is the use of a single bus on multiple bus routes that each serve downtown. Bus routes that are combined in this
manner are through-routed or "hooked." For example, Route 3 Langley and Route 3 West Gray are "hooked" and share the same bus equipment. Currently, METRO
operates 14 weekday through-routed / "hooked" route combinations. Ridership allocations for hooked routes are adjusted annually.

METROBus Indicators - Explanation of Information
How can I evaluate the ridership (demand) and the service resources supplied to each route (supply)?
METRO uses four indicators in its comparative / route ranking model. The four indicators are:
1) Passenger Boardings per Revenue Mile;
2) Passenger Boardings per Revenue Hour;
3) Total Subsidy per Passenger Boarding; and
4) Operating Ratio.
These four factors provide a balanced weighting between effectiveness measures (the first two factors), and efficiency measures (the last two factors).
By using the two effectiveness indicators, the reader can compare the effectiveness of multiple bus routes. (NOTE: With only 1 rail line, there is no
opportunity to compare effectiveness with other rail lines in METRO's system at this time.)
The indicator passenger boardings per revenue mile is calculated by dividing the number of average daily passenger boardings by route by the daily
number of revenue miles of service supplied on that route. The indicator passenger boardings per revenue hour is calculated by dividing the number
of average daily passenger boardings by the daily number of revenue hours of service supplied on that route.
The indicators are presented in two different formats on the following pages. The first format for presentation is by route number order. Route number
format allows the reader to look at the performance on one or more routes of interest. The second format for presentation is by indicator performance,
highest to lowest. For ease of viewing, an additional visual presentation format has been added. Routes with indicators in the first (best) quartile are
shown in white, while those in the second (next-best) quartile are shown in gray, those in the third quartile are shown in pink, and those in the fourth
(worst) quartile are shown in purple.
Additionally, the report includes charts showing the performance of the ten best and ten worst routes by indicator along with the average performance.
NOTE: The service levels used for these calculations are the current service levels, while the ridership used are year-to-date.

JANUARY 2015 (FY2015)Composite of Boardings and Indicators by Route - Explanation of Information
How can I compare the weekday, Saturday, and Sunday services on a particular route?
The following section of the report presents the average daily boardings, boardings per revenue hour, and boardings per revenue mile
for each route. Some routes operate only on weekdays, while other routes operate only on weekdays and Saturdays. Cells that
would show data for Saturdays and Sundays where service is not operated are shaded for ease of viewing.
How can I compare the performance of a particular route within a given category?
METRO's Service Planning section has categorized each route into one of the following service categories:
Local - Radial
Local - Crosstown
Local - Circulator
Local - Limited
Park & Ride - CBD Peak Period
Park & Ride - CBD Off-Peak Period
Park & Ride - Secondary Activity Centers
A consolidated summary of average daily boardings, boardings per revenue hour, and boardings per revenue mile are provided.
Additionally, charts show a relative comparision of the performance of each of these service category groups in these two
effectiveness indicators for weekday, Saturday, and Sunday.

NOTE: FY2015 METRORAIL RIDERSHIP BASED ON 100% DATA METHODOLOGY. FY2014 METRORAIL DATA REVISED TO REFLECT ALTERNATE SAMPLING METHODOLOGY.
1) Calendar Mix. There was one fewer weekday and one more Saturday in January 2015 relative to January 2014. Due to the change in calender mix, a ridership decrease would be expected.
2) Fare Increase. There was no change in METRO's base fare between FY2015 and FY2014. No ridership change would have been expected due to fares.
3) Gasoline Prices. Gasoline prices decreased by -39.3 % in January 2015 relative to January 2014. However, there is no statistical correlation between changes in gasoline prices and local bus ridership. The
only statistical correlation between gasoline prices and Park & Ride ridership occurred in FY2008 during the time period when the average price of a gallon of gasoline exceeded the maximum base fare for
a Park & Ride (then $3.50). No ridership change would have been expected due to the change in gasoline prices.
4) Special Events - METRORail. There were no special events in January 2015 and January 2014.
5) Service Interruptions - METRORail. There was one service interruption in January 2015 compared to zero service interruptions in January 2014. Due to the increase in the number of service interruptions, a ridership decrease would be expected.
6) Employment. There were 107K more people employed in December 2014 relative to December 2013. The unemployment rate in December 2014 was 5.1%, compared to 4.1% in December 2013 (Bureau
of Labor Statistics). A positive ridership change would be expected due to the improved employment picture.
7) Weather. Average temperature of 50° and 2.59 inches of rainfall in January 2015 as compared to average temperature of 50° and .73 inches in January 2014. A ridership decrease would be expected due to increased rainfall.
8) North Line Extension. The addition of 8 northbound and 8 southbound rail stations on the North Line occurred on Saturday, December 21, 2013.
