22. Walk&Ride Accessibility Lost by Moving the Dinky Terminus South Walk&Ride Accessibility Lost by Moving the Dinky Terminus South Assumptions: 1. All walk in a straight line to the station 2.All Walk&Ride trips production/attraction are uniformly distributed in the half plane north of the current terminus. 3.

25. Conclusions: Walk&Ride Accessibility Analysis Conclusions: Walk&Ride Accessibility Analysis 49% loss of ¼ mile prime walking area implies loss of Walk&Riders could be as high as 49% and a 25% loss of Dinky ridership. 24% loss of ½ mile walking area implies at least a 24% loss of Walk&Riders and at least a 13% loss of Dinky ridership 49% loss of ¼ mile prime walking area implies loss of Walk&Riders could be as high as 49% and a 25% loss of Dinky ridership. 24% loss of ½ mile walking area implies at least a 24% loss of Walk&Riders and at least a 13% loss of Dinky ridership
