Monthly Performance Report

January 2023

Prepared by OTS Service Evaluation

·         Ridership

Average weekday ridership for the month of January 2023 was 123,680, up by 21,044 or 21% from the previous year. Fiscal year-to-date ridership is at 22,918,001, up by 15% from the previous year.

 

Ridership continues to recover in 2023 and is still approximately 37 percent lower than pre-pandemic level.

 

·         On-Time Performance

System-wide on-time performance is at 66.9% for the month of January 2023. Out of 107 total routes, 34 routes exceeded on-time performance at 80% and 1 performed under 50%.

 

The DTS and OTS Service Review Committee reviews service levels, including on-time performance monthly.

 

·         Maintenance

As a result of the COVID pandemic, the spare ratio is above our normal 20% requirement due to low ridership. The fleet size has been decreased from 520 to 480 vehicles. We project that at this quantity we will come close to meeting our spare ratio requirements when rail service begins.

 

·         Service Modifications

Service modifications to the following routes were implemented with the December sign-up and remain in effect until the March sign-up.

 

-       Route 4 added up to ten (10) daily service hours;

-       Route 415 reinstated base-period service;

-       Route 416 rerouted westbound and eastbound.

 

We continue to work with DTS on bus service integration with rail service for the near future.
