Analysis Of The Allocation

Formula For Federal

Mass Transit Subsidies



Thje Federal Government grants funds to
urban areas to subsidize mass transit operating
expenses. These funds are allocated among
areas on the basis of a congressionally deter-
mined formula.
Ttiis report develops criteria by which alterna-
tive factors that might be included in such a
formula can be evaluated and then evaluates
many potential factors according to these cri-
teria. GAO suggests one possible formula that
satisfies these criteria reasonably well. GAO
also discusses the influence of the structure of
thp subsidy program on the extent to which
transit service is financed through farebox
roenues.
