Abstract: The purpose of this research is to assess the effectiveness on individual travel behavior as a result of using combined car-sharing and transit passes. This assessment was based upon participation in a mobility pass program or Compass + Pass Program that was implemented in late 2004 in the San Diego region. Program participants were highly satisfied for having an alternative to the drive-alone commute. This key finding points to the fact that there is some level of latent demand for alternatives to the drive alone commute, especially in corridors with heavy peak hour congestion. Also of significance is the finding that Program participants improved their views and impressions of nearly all characteristics of transit as a result of their participation in the Program. This research supports regional transportation policy-making in San Diego as well a comparable cities across California and the nation.
