Transit
Transit ridership during the 12 months prior to the latest reporting quarter. Numbers are in millions.
Rail Freight
Miles of short-line railroad with lightweight rail, such that speed or weight restrictions below expected values (as defined by the Federal Railroad Administration and the rail company) must be imposed.
Bicycle and Pedestrian
Percent of State highway miles with bike and/or pedestrian facilities in communities.
People & Freight on the Roads
Percent of highways meeting congestion expectations for carrying loads (height, width, and weight) and traffic volumes. These parameters are defined in the below table.

Variables
v = AADT/fHV (i.e. Volume/capacity ratio).
AADT = Annual Average Daily Traffic
fHV = 1/(1 + PHV*(EHV-1))
PHV = TAADT/AADT (i.e. fraction of the total traffic volume that is trucks)
TAADT = Annual Average Daily truck Traffic
EHV = Passenger car equivalent of a truck (by default this value is 2.0)
Color Definitions
- Poor performance (i.e. not meeting target).
- Good performance, but at risk of falling below target.
- Good performance.
- Information only; no target has been set.
