New Jersey’s Rail Network Analysis of Train Trips in New Jersey and the finding’s implication on NJ Transit By Julia Phillips Hill Wyrough

Creating a Network Assign every station a unique node in the network Create predecessor nodes aligned to NJ Transit ORF 467 Fall 2012

Assigning Pixels to Closet Train Station Each pixel was assigned a closet train station, a closest train station that served NYC, and a closest train station that served PHL ORF 467 Fall 2012

Assigning Pixels to Closet Train Station ORF 467 Fall 2012

Results of Train Trip Synthesis 1,450,968 train trips in New Jersey Daily coming to and from 155 stations ORF 467 Fall 2012

Station Volume Geo-Distribution Height is proportional to volume ORF 467 Fall 2012

Train Trips ORF 467 Fall 2012

The Top 10 Stations By Volume The top 10 stations make up 60.5% of the total volume ORF 467 Fall 2012

ORF 467 Fall 2012

Train Passenger Flow Maps All Train Trips of New Jersey Heading 1: Originating in NYC and PHL Heading 2: Terminating in NYC and PHL ORF 467 Fall 2012

Train Passenger Flow Maps All Train Trips Flowing Out of NYC Zoomed Out ORF 467 Fall 2012

Train Passenger Flow Maps All Train Trips of New Jersey After 12PM Heading 1: Originating in NYC and PHL Heading 2: Terminating in NYC and PHL ORF 467 Fall 2012

Mercer County All Train Trips Originating in Mercer ORF 467 Fall 2012

Mercer County Cumulative Distribution of Trip Miles as a Function of Time Time Trip Miles ORF 467 Fall 2012

Implications for NJ Transit Current daily NJ transit ridership is approximately 60% of our proposed NJ transit ridership as of FY2012 NJ Transit would have to significantly increase frequency of trains leaving NY Penn station We propose trains leaving at 15 minute intervals all day Even during current peak hours, this is a significant increase ORF 467 Fall 2012

Short Trips – Walk and Interpixel # of Short Trips – 2,463,490 Average Length – 0.489 miles Scale = 1,000,000 ORF 467 Fall 2012
