Specifications include, but are not limited to: The City of Joplin, Missouri, Public Works Department is requesting proposals for professional services for transit service evaluation and planning assistance from a consultant with significant fixed route service evaluation, route design, and scheduling/operations planning experience to support development of a ComprehensiveTransit Service Analysis (TSA) and short, medium, and long range service plans for the Sunshine Lamp Trolley deviated fixed routes, MAPS Transit demand response bus system, and related public transit services. This TSA/service plan effort will evaluate how well the Sunshine Lamp Trolley/MAPS Transit systems are positioned to serve the transit markets of today and of the future as well as identify both revenue-neutral and growth strategies for increasing the effectiveness of the transit system. The TSA and service plan will identify short-term, revenue-neutral actions to improve current operations and the effectiveness of the current transit systems, as well as a longer-range roadmap for system development that priorities potential improvements, should additional resources for transit operations and related capital investment become available.
