contents <p>The methodology and findings of a joint development study on Atlantic City<br>conducted by a team of graduate and undergraduate students at Princeton<br>University are described . The objective of the study was to evaluate the feasibility<br>of alternative rapid transit configurations in a selected corridor under<br>various managed land development scenarios. In order to assess the effectiveness<br>of alternative land development options together with various transit service<br>options, the team adapted and used an interactive sketch planning model<br>that allows rapid calculation of the results of changes in either the land use or<br>the transit service. Such variables as ridership, vehicle miles of travel, demand<br>for parking spaces at the stations, and also revenue-cost aspects of the transit<br>and land consumption are quantified and trade-offs are outlined. The use of<br>a computerized sketch planning model allows the analyst to evaluate quickly<br>a large number of alternatives and to focus rapidly on the more promising ones.</p>
