1、449 Federal Transit Admin., DOT 611.3 temporary handicaps may not be recognized as handicapped by social service agencies. 9. Question: Can the operator require that elderly and handicapped persons come to a central office to register for an off-peak half- fare program? Answer: FTA strongly encourag
2、es opera-tors to develop procedures which maximize the availability of off-peak half-fares to eli-gible individuals. Requiring individuals to travel to a single office which may be incon-veniently located is not consistent with this policy, although it is not strictly prohibited. FTA reserves the ri
3、ght to review such local requirements on a case-by-case basis. 10. Question: Must ID cards issued by one operator be transferable to another? Answer: No. However, FTA encourages con-sistency among off-peak procedures and the maximizing of availability to eligible indi-viduals, especially among opera
4、tors within a single urban area. Nevertheless, each oper-ator is permitted to require its own certifi-cation of individuals using its service. 11. Question: Can an operator require an el-derly or handicapped person to submit to a procedure certifying their eligibility before they can receive half-fa
5、re? For example, if an operator requires eligible individuals to have a special ID card, can the half-fare be denied to an individual who can otherwise give proof of age, etc, but does not have an ID card? Answer: Yes, although FTA does not en-dorse this practice. 53 FR 53356, Dec. 30, 1988. Redesig

(a) This part applies to all proposals for Federal capital investment fu
13、nds under 49 U.S.C. 5309 for new transit fixed guideway systems and extensions to existing systems.

14、cts are otherwise exempt from evaluation by statute. (1) Exempt projects must still be rated by FTA for purposes of entering into a Federal funding commitment as VerDate Mar2010 10:10 Dec 13, 2010 Jkt 220218 PO 00000 Frm 00459 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Y:SGML220218.XXX 220218wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with

The definitions established by Titles 12 and 49 of the United States Code, the Council on Environmental Qualitys regulation at 40 CFR parts 15001508, and FHWAFTA regulations at 23 CFR parts 450 and 771 are applicable. In ad-dition, the following definitions apply:
19、Alternatives analysis is a corridor level analysis which evaluates all rea-sonable mode and alignment alter-natives for addressing a transportation problem, and results in the adoption of a locally preferred alternative by the appropriate State and local agencies and official boards through a public
20、 process. Baseline alternative is the alternative against which the proposed new starts project is compared to develop project justification measures. Relative to the no build alternative, it should include transit improvements lower in cost than the new start which result in a better ratio of measu
21、res of transit mo-bility compared to cost than the no build alternative. BRT means bus rapid transit. Bus Rapid Transit refers to coordi-nated improvements in a transit sys-tems infrastructure, equipment, oper-ations, and technology that give pref-erential treatment to buses on fixed guideways and u

Extension to existing fixed-guideway system means a project to extend an ex-isting fixed guideway system. FFGA me

Final Design is the final phase of project development, and includes (but is not limited to) the preparation of final construction plans (including con-struction management plans), detailed specifications, construction cost esti-mates, and bid documents.
