Public bus transportation provides critical services to urban areas across the U.S. Bus service provides accessibility to populations that may otherwise face limited access. Unfortunately, bus ridership faces declines, but these declines can be mitigated or reversed by improving bus service. This thesis assesses the levels of bus service in four American cities: Austin, Denver, Las Vegas, and Sacramento. This research determines whether service is similar for vulnerable and non-vulnerable populations, as defined by relevant American Community Survey (ACS) variables. Areas in the four cities where bus service should be expanded or service frequency should be adjusted are also identified. This two-stage analysis first establishes a vulnerability metric and assesses similarities or differences between bus service in vulnerable and non-vulnerable areas by comparing residuals of a multiple linear regression model. Then, suitability analysis is conducted comparing the Boolean and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) methods for each of the four cities. Findings of the AHP models are then compared with current bus service to identify areas to expand, increase, or reduce service. Results of this work should benefit transportation managers and regional planners and aid in improving bus service in other urban areas around the U.S.
