UC San Diego Transit and Shuttle Funding Issues Fall Quarter 2009
Existing Conditions In FY 2008/09, Transit and Shuttle programs cost $6.9 million and transported approximately 4.8 million passenger trips Increased transit and shuttle ridership has been largely responsible for reducing solo vehicle commuting from 66% in 2001 to 46% in 2009 87% of shuttle and transit funding is provided by parking and citation revenues Unless additional funding is secured, transit and shuttle service cuts will be necessary
Student Transit Fee Nationally, student transportation fees are the most common and effective means of funding university transit and shuttle programs Student transit fees are good for sustainability and create a dedicated revenue source to ensure continued operation of transit and shuttle services User fees are less effective as they result in declining ridership and revenue Student ratepayer board would be created to administer and allocate fee revenue
