Public Transportation In Alameda County

The negative impacts of limited or lack transportation services on rural population include rescheduled or missed appointments, delayed care and missed or delayed medication use (Syed, Gerber & Sharp, 2013). Mattson (2010) claimed that the delay in medical appointment for rural clients not only resulted in missing the care at the time they most need it, but it also can be more serious and costly

Everyday people in Toronto travel to places using public transportation. Without public transportation, we wouldn’t be able to go to places that are far away from us. We needed them in our everyday life but there are key problems that surfaces when using public transportation. Public transportation may seem convenient but for others it may not seem ideal for them from certain circumstances such as the cost, lack of transportation in a certain area and the delays. These make people not want to ride a public transportation which is why Toronto should improve on the public transportation to make the best interest for the people.

These services are great for elderly people to get out and enjoy themselves, interact and gather with friends. Many elderly people do not go anywhere due to lack of transport or people to go with, so this will help the elderly people have days out and have events to look forward to.

Bay Area Rapid Transit(BART) system provides residents in Bay Area with convenient and rapid transportation service among nine counties [1]. After the concept of BART was born in late 1940, the BART board of directors was created in 1957 which had 12 members and controlled the whole BART project. They entitled a consortium of 3 engineering companies Parsons, Brinkerhoff-Tudor-Bechtel (PBTB) to direct the construction of BART which began about 1963 [4]. BART system tried to apply many innovative technologies that had never been used in other commuter system, and one of them was the Automated Train Control (ATC) System, which was entitled to the Westinghouse Electric Corporation with a 26-million-dollar contract to design, install and tune the whole ATC system [3][4]. From 1969 to early 1971, three engineers whose work were related to different aspects of ATC expressed their concerns about the way the ATC system was being developed to their management. Holger Hjortsvang, a systems engineer, and Max Blankenze, a programmer analyst, criticized that the development of ATC was lack of supervision from Both BART board and PBTB. At the same time, Robert Bruder, an electrical engineer criticized the non-professional way the ATC system was designed and installed, and the unrealistic opening schedule [4]. After a long waiting without any significant response from their managers to their concerns, they decided to take actions and reported the issues directly to a BART board member with

Physical accessibility is a multifaceted problem facing individuals that reside in rural communities as well as urban areas. Closely related to deficiencies in supply and demand, physical accessibility is dependent on a sufficient number of providers to provide sufficient geographic distribution in addition to the ability of individuals to travel to a provider. If a patient is required to travel long distances to seek care then it is less likely that these individuals will readily seek care.

The state of Texas is well known for its fast grown as a southern state, due to the idea of better opportunities of employment and for having a cheap lifestyle such as housing and food. But not everything is so good, the transportation in Texas is not very efficient. Even when the state has more than 501 highways, they seem to not be on the best conditions.

There are problems in cities too regarding healthcare access. Access such as emergency services, diagnostic equipment and medical specialist are problematic (Soroka,

I would like to focus and investigate the lack of age appropriate transportation services for the elderly and people with disabilities. The issue of transportation becomes a major concern when the elderly and people who are disabled develop uncontrollable age related illnesses and are no longer healthy to drive. Losing the privilege to drive brings independence to an end and forces the elderly to stay at home which may lead to despair and other emotions. Therefore, it is essential to provide our senior citizens and people with disabilities with reliable transportation to help them maintain their independence. It is important to create reliable services to support them in making choices about how they want to live the last years of their

Access to healthcare is a factor of great importance that needs to be addressed by any healthcare system. Issues such as the

Public transportation is serious need of a massive overhaul in this nation. We are in desperate need to catch up to the European standard of public transportation in this country. In Europe, citizens can travel across cities, bodies of water, and even counties with their state of the art public transportation system. Europeans are not nearly as reliant on cars and oil as the United States is because they have the much more practical option of taking the transportation provided to them by the government to where ever they need to go. They have set a model that the United States needs to strive for and meet in the near future.
