Farebox Recovery - 

Demand Response

Value: 22.74%
Measurement Period: 2010
Location: Allen County
Comparison:

Ohio Urban Public Transit Agencies 

What is this Indicator?  The farebox recovery ratio of a passenger transportation system is the proportion of the amount of revenue generated through fares by its paying customers as a fraction of the cost of its total operating expenses. 
Why this is important?  The measure provides a general indication of the extent to which the transit authority is self-supporting.  Most systems aren't self-supporting, so advertising revenue and government subsidies are usually required to cover costs.
Technical Note:  Values are reported by the Transit Authority annually.  Goals are set by the Ohio Department of Transportation.
