Dunford, Acting Director • . March 22, i973 Mr. Frank Marzitelli , City Administrator City of Saint Paui City Hall Dear Si r: ' QT Loop Bus 7his lett�r is to inf�rm you of the QT Loop bus operation, to request additional funding, and to recommend changes in its route and scheuule. Attached are the results af the QT Loop operation from its inception on November 24, 1972, through P�tarcn 2, 1973, as developed by the hffC. With the ex�..r_sor: oi' vecen��bet �� ���� cugl� Decc:.;ber 22, ',�;2, ::!:�:: f:-:.:. r�des were provided tiy the Fietropolitan �-ransit i,o^mission, approximately 57,678 passenoers rcde the �,T Loop bus during �3 c�ays of operation. Coun- ting senior citizr.ns ° free rides Gn� transfers as paying passengers, $5,768 revenue is cre�ited to+r�ard t}�e $23,31�J (63 x $370) out-of-poc4cet operating cost, resulting in a $17,542 deficit. According to the terms af the agree�ent between the City and the MTC dated June 27, 1972, each agency will pay up to $1�,000 for the operating losszs for one year of the QT Leo� service on a 50-50 basis. Subtracting the deficit as of March 2, 1973, from the dedicated $30,000 leaves $12,458 to cover the operating losses until Navember 23, 1973. In order to stay within tl:is amount the avera,e daily ridersnip would have to be 3,030 whereas it is about 1 ,000 at present. If the ridership stays at this level , the total $30,G00 witl be expended in 46 operating days which will be tlay 7th. Since the QT Loop shuttle buses are being operated to provide a service to • the people in t{�e downtown area and are not intended to be profitable, we recommend that the City and the MTC should dedicate more money to the QT Loop operatian on the present basis (50-50} , A rough appr•oximation of the subsidy is $20,000 each based on the following assumptions and calcuiations: Days Passenqers March 5 to June 30, 1 ,000 passengers/day 84 84,000 Ju1y 1 to December 31 , 1 ,500 passengers/day 126 189,000 Totai 210 273,000 Unit Costs, $ � x0. 10 Operating Cost & Revenue $77,700 $27,300 _�_ ��;��p F. Marzitel� i Page 2 This results in a deficit of $50,400. As shown above, $12,458 is available for deficit operation leavir,g a $37,9�+2 projected unfunded deficit. Using a rounded off figure of $40,000 and dividing it equally you arrive at the $20,000 subsidy for the t�1TC and the City of St. Paul . We are presently investigating alternate subsidy methods which would not have to be financed by city taxpayers on a city wide basis but considers benefits. Ridership may be increased by advertising by the MTC, the Downtown Council , and the Civic Center Authority; by inducements paid for by loop businesses for their custo�ers and e��ployees; possibly by reducing fares; by providing more sheltered tiYaiting areas; by providing more frequent service; and by properly iocating the route through experimentation. The attaciied letter from the St. Paut Civic Center parking ramp manager indicates an optimistic increase in QT ridership due to promotional effort. As will be recalled, one of the purposes of initiating shuttle bus service was to incre�se patronage of the Civic Center parking ramp. Numerous reques�s h�ve been received to extend the QT Loop route eastward to either Watl Street or Wacouta Street. Also, Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc. , the consultant for the present doamtown circulation and distribution study, recommends a future shuttle ous operating in exclusive lanes routed on 4lacouta Street. We believe that ridership will increase due to this exfi�nsion {with no detriment to service) and therefore concur in the recom- mendation to extend the route eastward. Since Wacouta Street is signalized at Fifth. Sixth ar,d Seventh Streets, we prefer it over Walt Street for the QT Loop route. AttaGhed �re three sheets of a "Mini-bus .Layaver Survey" made by the Department of Fublic Works. A summary of. those observations foltows: (Values in Minutes) Rush Hours Noon 7:00 a.m. 3 :3� p.m. 11 :00 a.m. All :QO a.m. 5:30 p.m. 1 :00 p.m. Observations Route Time: .

Marzitelli Page 3 buses operating on the existing schedule, in addition to wasting the opera- tion of one bus (by having two and quite often three buses parked at the Civic Center parking ramp) , the present operating strategy of departing from the ramp at six rninute intervals discoura�es ridership since the actual departures vary too much (especially when the headways are longer than six minutes) and is insensitive to overcr�wding and frustrations caused by waiting unnecessarily with another bus for company. The reason given for using a six rrinute headway is that "bunching" of buses on the ro�ate would occur if shorter headways ►�.�ere used and, consequently, a long headway would result bet��een the last and first buses in the bunch. As may be seen, the bunching is occurring at the Civic Cer�ter parking ramp as a result of the present operating strategy. In order to pr�vide better service (and presumably thereby increase rider- ship) , dif`erent operatinc� strategies have been simulated and are enctosed (see three sheets entitled "QT Loop-Operating Strategy") . The three strategies simulated are: l . If no bus is present on arrivals, layover 2 minutes at ramp. If bus is present on arrival , }ayo��er 6 minutes or when next bus arrives (2 minute minimu,�► layover) , 2. If no bus is present on arrival , layover 1 min, at ramp. If bus is present on arrival , layover 5 mtn, or when next bus arrives (1 min, minimum layover) . 3, lf no bus is present on arrival , layover 1 to 4 min, depending on arrivat of next bus. lf bus is present on arrivat , layover 3 to 6 min, depending on arrival of next bus. Three simutations were made fcr thc existing route using 9 to 20 minute route times in identical route tin�e 5equ2nce. The best service was obtained by using the third cperating strategy. This third strategy was tested on the route extended eastward to IJacouta Street using 11 to 22 minute route times and is also enclosed {see "t�EW QT Loop--Operating Strategy") . This test indicates that the present four buses can provide good service on a longer route if operated in the n;�nner indicated. Summary of Recommendations The City and the 1�ITC should each dedicate an additional $20,000 subsidy for the operation of the QT Loop to December 31 , 1973. � Encourage promotion and advertising of the QT Loop. Study the possibility of financial aid from benefitted businesses, agencies, and individuals, Encourage provision of waiting shelters. Extend route eastward to Wacouta Street. � F. Marzitelli Page 4 Adopt an operating strategy of 1 to 4 minute layovers if no bus is present and 3 to 6 minute tayovers if a bus is present at the Civic Center parking ramp. Very truty yours, GG� .

Mr. Donald Hancock Public Works 274 City Hall Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102 Dear Mr. Hancock: • � The following is a comparison of our November business �ust prior to the QT and our February business. November Daily; Av. No. February Daily; Av. No. 8 hr. $1.00 Parkers 166 232 Under 5 hr. Parkers No Change Contract Parkers 362 466 528 698 Sc�me at this increase is a result of our normal seasonaZ increase. The remainder is due to the QT. An estimated breakdown of our increase is: total increase, 170 parkers; seasonal increase, 50 parkers; QT, 120 parkers. By April I will have a precise breakdown when our seasonal parkers depart for Harriet Island. April 1, I will also be signing a group contract with Minnesota Mutual employees. They indicate to me that it will be in the vicinity of 100 people. However, I won't be able to give a definite number until the end of March. This new contract was obtained as a result of the QT service. Last December I made an extensive promotional effort throughout the downtown area, east of Wabasha, based on the QT service. Minnesota autual was one of the businesses I approached. As a result, they are signing this contract. The present increase in business attributed to the QT is also a result of this promotional. effort. It is a healthy increase but not as good as it could be. There are several factors involved here. The main one is that people are habitual about parking and so it is diff icult to get them to change. It is a slow process. Secondly, we are a peripheral parking facility. Our competition is other peripheral parking areas. Most notable among these are Harriet Island and Farmers Market. If Harriet Island Parking was eliminated in some manner, many of these people would move to our ramp. Consequently, there would be a boost in QT business. JOHN E.

W. SPRINGER General Manager Mc�ch 26, 1973 Mr. Cam Andre Executive Director Mefiropalitan Transit Commission 330 Metro Square Bldg. St. Paul, Minn. 55101 Dear Mr. Andre: On Friday, November 24, 1972, the Commission began QT service in downtown St. Paul in accordance with an agreement with the City of St. .Pavl that called for the city to share one-half (50%) of the operating losses anticipated to be $30,000 for the first year of operation. The present QT operates between the hours of 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM on a 6-minute frequency over the route shown on Exhibit A and the fare is 10�. Exhibit B is a statement of operations for the period beg+nning November 24, 1972 through April 30, 1973, with the months of March and April estimated. You will note from this exhibit that the period ending April 30, 1973, it is estimated that the (oss on operations will be $28,396. You will also note from this exhibit that the St. Paul QT service is carrying approximately 20,000 passengers per month or about 950 passen�ers per day, an average of 4.0 passengers per mile. ____ _ Exhibit A shows that the QT service operates from the St. Paul Civic Center parking ramp eastbound on Kellogg Boulevard, northbound on Market Street, eastbound on 4th Street, northbound on Wabasha Street, eastbound on 7th Street, southbound on Jackson Street, westbound on 4th Street, southbound on Washington Street, then westbound on Kellogg Boulevard to the St. Paui Civic Center parking ramp where the route terminals. During the past several weeks, Ramsay Peard, an ATE staff man, has made several visits to the Twin Cities to assist the Transit Operating Division staff in gathering and rnalyzing information and data relating to the St. Paul QT service. Our composite passenger checks for an average day shows the following: 1. Of the 443 QT passengers prior to 9:00 AM, 358 passengers or $3% boarded or alighted at the St. Paul Civic Center parking ramp. � I � Y Mr. Cam Andre March 26, 1973 Page 2 . � 2. Of the 348 passengers who boarded prior to 9:00 AM at the St. Paul Civic , ( Center parking ramp, 270 passengers or 77% alighted prior to the QT bus � turning north on Wabasha Street and 67 alighted on Wabasha Street. Only � 11 passengers traveled beyond Wabasha Street. � s 3. After 4:00 PM, 135 passengers alighted at the St, Paul Civic Center parking ramp and virtual ly al I those passengers boarded the bus on 4th Street west of ` Jackson Street, r I 4. Between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, there were 445 passenge.rs. Of those passengers � 225 circulated to Jackson Street or 4th Street, 52 circulated to Wabasha Street or 7th Street, and 168 boarded or alighted at the St. Paul Civic Center parking ; ramp. � � 5. Lunch hour ridership was virtually the same as the ridership between the hours ; of 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM. � � Exhibit C is a map of the St. Paul QT route showing points where passengers boarded for the composite one day passenger check. Exhibit D is a map of the St. Paul QT showing ` points where passengers alighted during the camposite one day passenger check, � k A careful analysis of the aforementioned findings and other passenger information indicates i that the present QT service serves two separate and distinct markets; (1) the work oriented ` "shuttle" market and (2) the shopper oriented 'rcirculation" market. ` i i While the present route appears to adequately serve the parking (shuttle) market generated ; by the St. Paul Civic Center parking ramp during the rush hours, the midday shopper � (circulation) market is not well served by the present route inasmuch as the original or � return trip is indirect, having to retum to the St. Paul Civic Center parking lofi, thus discouraging shopper oriented (circulation) trips within the shopping area of downtown St. Paul. We believe that a more direct circulation will increase (oop ridership by fpr more than the 168 passengers presently boc�rding or alighting at the St. Paul Civic Center parking ramp during the 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM period. Therefore, the Transit Operating Division recommends the following: 1. That the present route continue to be operated between the hours of 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM, in order to continue to serve the work oriented (shuttle) market. Mr. Cam Andre March 26, 1973 Page 3 2. That between the hours of 9;00 AM and 4:00 PM, the Civic Center portion of the route be eliminated and a circulator route from Wabasha Street to 7th Street to Jackson Street to 4th Street be operated in order to better serve the shopper oriented circulator trips. Exhibit E shows that portion of the route that we recommend be eliminated during the midday. 3. That the frequency of service during the moming rush hour (7:00 AM to 9:00 AM) be 6 minutes. 4. That the frequency of service during the midday period (9:00 AM to 4:00 PM) be 7 minutes. 5. That the frequency of service during the aftemoon rush hour (4:00 PM to 6:00 PM) be 7 minutes. Four buses are required to meet the presently scheduled 6 minute frequency. Should the Commission adopt the aforementioned recommendation, one bus could be eliminated from both the AM and PM rush hours and two buses could be eliminated from the midday, thus reducing the losses substantially with�ut seriously affecting the level of service. Earlier in this report we estimated that for the five month plus period ending April 30, 1973, the loss on operations would be $28,396. Should present service continue to be operated for a full one year period, and taking infio consideration the increased operating costs cmd moderate increases in passenger ridership, the estimated loss on operations for the one-year period ending November 23, 1973 would be approximately $80,000. Exhibit F is a projected statement of operations for the St. Paul QT service for a one-year period beginning May 1, 1973, that includes our aforementioned routing, scheduling and frequency recommendations. You will note from this exhibit that the estimated loss for the one year period beginning May 1, 1973 through April 30, 1974 would be approximately $38,606. This estimate also taking into consideration increased costs of operation and moderate increases in passenger ridership. Over the past several months the Transit Operating Division has been meeting with a special committee of the St. Paul Chamber of Commerce and various St. Paul city officials on the rerouting of St. Paul routes 9, 14 and 15. Exhibit G shows that these routes enter the CBD on 7th Street after crassing the 1-94 viaduct and proceed to Sibley Street where they tum northbound to 8th Street and then proceed westbound on 8th Street. A ridership survey shaws thafi cu� overwhelming number of passengers (85%) who alight the bus on 8th Street between Jackson Street and S#. Peter walk soufih to the employment centers. In our discussions with Chamber and city officials, we suggested that routes 9, 14 and 15 be rerouted from 8th Street south on Jackson to 6th Street, then westbound on 6th Street in order to provide much greater convenience to riders. e Mr. Cam Andre " Mca�ch 26, 1973 Page 4 Since there appears to be general agreement between the Transit Operating Division, the City of St. Paul and Chamber of Commerce officials, we would recommend that each of these routes be rerouted, one at a time, over the next several months. We believe that such o rerouting of these three routes would not only convenience p�sengers but wil) further increase ridership on the St. Paul QT by providing aecess to the southwest portion of the CBD via QT buses. To summarize, the Transit Operating Division recommends the following: 1. That the present route continue to be operated between the hours of 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM, in order to continue to serve the work oriented (shuttle) market. 2. That between the hours of 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, the Civic Center partion of the route be eliminated and a circulator roufie from Wabasha Street to 7th Street to Jackson Street to 4th Street be operated in order to better serve the shopper oriented circulator trips. Exhibit E sho�ws that portion of the route fihat we recommend be eliminated during the midday. 3. That the frequency of service during the morning rush hour (7:00 AM to 9:00 AM) be 6 minutes. 4. That the frequency of service during the midday period (9:00 AM to 4:00 PM) be 7 minutes. 5. That the frequency of service during the aftemoon rush hour (4:00 PM to 6:00 PM) be 7 minutes. 6. That St. Paul Routes 9, 14 a�d 15 be rerouted during the next 3-month period. In preparing our report and recommendations, the Trmsit Operating Division acknowledges the continued enthusiastic support and assistance it has received from the City of St. Paul officials cmd businessmen. Their efforts to assist in the promotion of the QT service have been particularly noteworfihy and appreciated. We would appreciate your forwarding this report and our recommendations to the appropriate Committees of the Commission for their review and action. Sincerely, � ` H. W.

Ridersh+p may be increased by advertising by the MTC, the Downcown Council , and th� Civic Center Authori�y; by inciu�enents paid for by lvop businesses for their customers and empioyees; possibly by reducing fares; by providing more sheltered waiting areas; by providing more frequent service; and by properiy Tocating the route through experimentation. The attached l�tter from the St. Paul Civic Center parking ramp manager indicates an optimistic increase in QT ridership due to promotronal effort. As will be recalted, one of the purposes of initiating shuttle bus service was to increasa patronage of the Civic Center parlcing ramp. Paumerous requests have bzen receiv::d to extend the QT Loop route eastward to either Wall Street or Wacouta Street, also, Barton-Ascnman Assaciates, Inc., the consultant for the present downtown circulacion and distribution s�udy, recommends a future s�uttle bus op�ra�ing in exclusive lanes routed on Wacouta Street. We believe that ridership wilt increase du� to this extensio;� (with no detrimer�t to service) and therefore concur in the recom- mendation to extend th� route eastward. Since Wacouta S�reet is signaiizzd at F'�ftn, Sixth and S�v�nth Streets, we prefer it ov�r GJai1 Street for tne QT Loop route.

The reason given for using a six minu�e headway is that "bunching" of buses on the ro�ate woutd occur if shorter headways w�re used and, consequently, a long headway would result betwzen the last and first buses in the bunch. As may be seen, the bunching is occurring at the Civic Center park�ng ramp as a result of the present operating strategy. In order to provide better service (and presumably thereoy increase rider- ship), different operating strategies have been simulated and are 2ncios�d (see three shrets e�titled "QT Laop-Op�rating Strat�gy") . The three strategies simulated are: 1 . If no bus is present on arrivals, iayover 2 minutes at ramp. If bus is pr�sent on arrival , layaver 6 minutes or wh�n next bus arrives (2 minute minimum tayover} , 2. !f no bus is pr�s�nt on arrivai , layover 1 min, at rar,;p. !f bus is present ort arrival , layover 5 min, or when next bus arriv�s (1 m:n, minimum layov�r) , 3. ! f no bus is present on arriv�l , layover 1 to t� nin. dc�pznding on arrival of next bus.

Ttiree simulations were rnade for the existing route using 9 to 2Q rnirute. route tirnes in identicat route time seqUence. The best servic� was cbtaineeE by using tne tnird operating strategy. This third strategy was tested on th� route ext�nded eastward to Wacouta Stre�r using 11 to 22 minu�e route tirnes and is also enclosed (see "NEW QT Loop--Gperating Strategy") .

SPRINGER General Manager March 26, 1973 Mr. Cam Andre Executive Director Metropolitan Transit Commission � 330 Metro Square Bldg. St. Paul, Minn. 55101 Dear Mr. Andre: On Friday, November 24, 1972, the Commission began QT service in downtown St. Paul in accordance with an agreement with the Cifiy of St. .Paul that called for the city to share one-half (50%) of the operating losses anticipated to be $30,000 for the first year of operation. The present QT operates between fihe hours of 7:00 AM to b:00 PM on a 6-minute frequency over the route shown on Exhibit A and the fare is 10�. Exhibit B is a statement of operations for the period beginning November 24, 1972 through April 30, 1973, with the months of March and April estimated. You will note from this exhibit that the period ending April 30, 1973, it is estimated that the loss on operations will be $28,396. You will also note from this exhibit that the St. Paul C�T service is carrying approximateiy 20,000 passengers per month or about 950 passengers per day, an average of 4.0 passengers per mi le. Exhibit A shows that the QT service operates from the St. Paul Civic Center parking ramp eastbound on Kellogg Boulevard, northbound on Market Street, eastbound on 4th Street, northbound on Wabasha Street, easfibound on 7th Street, southbound on Jackson Street, westbound on 4th Street, southbound on Washington Sfireet, then westbound on Kellogg Boulevard to the St. Faul Civic Cent�r parking ramp where the route terminals. During the past several weeks, Ramsay Peard, an ATE staff man, has made several visits to the Twin Cities to assist the Transit Operating Division staff in gathering and analyzing information and data relating to the St. Paul QT service. Our composite passenger checks for an average day shows the following: 1. Of the 443 QT passengers prior to 9:00 AM, 358 passengers or 83% boarded or alighted at the St. Paul Civic Center parking ramp. t , � . . � , � �� -�F i. IVIr. Cam Andre � March 26, 1973 � Page 2 E � 2. Of the 348 passengers who boarded prior to 9:00 AM at the St. Paul Civic . ; Center parking ramp, 270 passengers or 77% alighted prior to the QT bus �. turning north on Wabasha Street and 67 alighted on Wabasha Street. Only � 11 passengers traveled beyond Wabasha Street. � 3. Affier 4:00 PM, 135 passengers alighted at the St. Paul Civic Center parking ; ramp and virtually al I those passengers boarded the bus on 4th Street west of � Jackson Street. � � � 4. Between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, there were 445 passengers. Of those passengers ; 225 circulated to Jackson Street or 4th Street, 52 circulated to Wabasha Street ? or 7th Street, and 168 boarded or alighted at the St. Paul Civic Center parking � ramp. 5. Lunch hour ridership was virtually the same as the ridership between the hours of 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM. � � Exhibit C is a map of the St. Paul QT route showing points where passengers boarded for the composite one day passenger check. Exhibit D is a map of the St. Paul QT shaving ` poin#s where passengers alighted during the composite one day passenger check. � � • � t A careful analysis of the aforementioned findings and other passenger information indicates ; that the present QT service serves two separate and distinct markets; (1) the work oriented � "shuttle" market and (2) the shopper oriented "circulation" market. � ! While the present route appears fio adequately serve the parking (shuttle) market generated � by the St. Pau) Civic Center parking ramp during the rush hours, the midday shopper � (circulation) market is not well served by the present route inasmuch as the original or return trip is indirect, having to retum to the St. Paul Civic Center parking (ot, thus discouraging shopper oriented (circulation) trips within the shopping area of downtown St. Paul. We believe that a more direct circulation will increase loop ridership by far more than the � 168 passengers presently boarding or alighting at the St. Paul Civic Center parking ramp during the 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM period. . Therefore, the Transit Operating Division recommends the following: 1. That the present route continue to be operated between the hours of 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM, in order to continue to serve the work oriented (shuttle) market. Mr. Cam Andre March 26, 1973 Page 3 2. That between the hours of 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, the Civic Center portion of the route be eliminated and a circulator route from Wabasha Street to 7th Street to Jackson Street to 4th Street be operated in order to better serve the shopper oriented circulator trips. Exhibit E shows that portion of the route that we recommend be eliminated during the midday. 3. That the frequency of service during the moming rush hour (7:00 AM to 9:00 AM) be 6 minutes. 4. Thai� the frequency of service during the midday period (9:00 AM to 4:00 PM) be 7 minutes. 5. That the frequency of service during the aftemoon rush hour (4:00 PM to 6:00 PM) be 7 minutes. - Four buses are required to meet the presently scheduled 6 minute frequency. Should the Commission adopt the aforementioned recommendation, one bus could be eliminated from both the AM and PM rush hours and fiwo buses could be eliminated from the midday, thus reducing the losses substantially withc,ut seriously affecting the level of service. Earlier in this report we estimated that for the five month plus period ending April 30, 1973, the loss on operations would be �28,396. Should present service continue to be operated for a full one year period, and taking into consideration the increased operating costs and moderate increases in passenger ridership, the estimated loss on operations for the one-year period ending November 23, 1973 would be approximately $80,000. Exhibit F is a projected statement of operations for the St. Paul QT service for a one-year period beginning May 1, 1973, that includes our aforementioned routing, scheduling and frequency recommendations. You will note from this exhibit that the estimated loss for the one year period beginning May l, 1973 through April 30, 1974 would be approximately $38,606. This estimate also taking into consideration increased costs of operation and moderate increases in passenger ridership. Over the past several months the Transit Operating Division has been meeting with a special committee of the St. Paul Chamber of Commerce and various St. Paul city officia(s on the rerouting of St. Paul routes 9, 14 and 15. Exhibit G shows that these routes enter the CBD on 7th Street after crossing the I-94 viaduct and proceed to Sibley Street where they turn northbound to 8th Street and then proceed westbound on 8th Street. A ridership survey shaws that an overwhelming number of passengers (85°l0) who alight the bus on 8th Street between Jackson Street and S#. Peter walk south to the employment centers. In our discussions with Chamber and city officials, we suggested that routes 9, 14 and 15 be rerouted from 8th Street south on Jackson to 6#h Street, then westbound on bth Street in order to provide much greater convenience to riders. _ Mr. Cam Andre �- March 26, 1973 Page 4 Since there appears to be general agreement between the Transit Operating Division, the Ciiy of St. Paul and Chamber of Commerce officials, we would recommend that each of these routes be rerouted, one at a time, over the next several months. We believe that such a rerouting of these three routes would not only convenience passengers but will further increase ridership on the St. Paul QT by providing access to the southwest portion of the CBD via QT buses. To summarize, the Transit Operating Division recommends the following; 1. That the present route continue to be operated between the hours of 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM, in order to continue to serve the work oriented (shuttle) market. 2. That beiween the hours of 9:00 AM and 4:Q0 PM, the Civic Center portion of the route be eliminated and a circulator route from Wabasha Street to 7th Street to Jackson Street to 4th Street be operafied in order to better serve the shopper oriented circulator trips. Exhibit E shows that portion of the route that we recommend be eliminated during the midday. 3. That the frequency of service during the morning rush hour (7:00 AM to 9:00 AM) be 6 minutes. 4. Thafi the frequency of service during the midday period (9:00 AM to 4:OQ PM) be 7 minutes. 5. That the frequency of service during the aftemoon nrsh hour (4:00 PM to 6:00 PM) be 7 minutes. 6. That St. Paul Routes 9, 14 and 15 be rerouted during the next 3-month period. In preparing our report and recommendations, the Trrnsit Operating Division acknowledges the continued enthusiastic support and assistance it has received from the City of St. Paul officials and businessmen. Their efforts to assist in the promotion of the QT service have been particularly noteworthy and appreciated.
