Question:
You are asked to perform an “Analyses of Alternatives” (or trade study) for subsidized low-cost transportation of students from the Catholic University campus to a proposed off-campus housing site in Maryland that is several miles from the nearest Metro station, but close to major highways and next to a Baltimore-Washington MARC railroad station. The chosen transportation scheme is to be paid for by the University. Describe in detail: • how you would set up your analysis • the specific transportation concepts you would explore (choose AT LEAST 3 concepts) • the specific criteria you would use to evaluate these concepts (choose AT LEAST 4 criteria) • a matrix showing how you would evaluate the concepts against the criteria (but you do NOT have to perform the full analysis with specific numbers)
