Re: Bus Route Profiles Released By NYC Comptroller Scott Stringer

Posted by Stephen Bauman on Sat Dec 30 00:31:45 2017, in response to Bus Route Profiles Released By NYC Comptroller Scott Stringer, posted by checkmatechamp13 on Fri Dec 29 23:15:43 2017.

There's a problem with your pass/mile metric. I assume you based it on the Stringer report by dividing the number of passengers by the route length. You could also have developed a pass/stop metric.

The problem is that the metric isn't showing how crowded the bus is likely to be. What's needed is to divide the daily count by the total daily mileage or stops. That would put things a per bus-mile or per bus-stop basis.
