The Transportation Research Board recently released the following Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) reports:

Research Results Digest 101—Funding for Infrastructure Maintenance: Achieving and Sustaining a State of Good Repair. This digest examines how bus and rail agencies and operators in several European cities develop community support for public transportation and how those communities implement sustainable funding strategies for transit assets, operations, and maintenance. It is based on the results of a June 2010 scanning mission conducted through TCRP’s International Transit Studies Program.

Research Results Digest 102—Public Transportation Systems as the Foundation for Economic Growth. This digest examines how transit investments are linked to economic growth and recovery in several cities in Turkey, Egypt, and South Africa.
