Socioeconomic Benefits
In a continued effort to provide transparency and commitment to data, CARB is taking measures to improve data collection for the evaluation, analysis, and reporting of socioeconomic benefits for program participants. This includes an updated survey to provide for more streamlined data collection, analysis, and identification of benefits or areas for improvement. These surveys are self-reported by participants on improved access to employment and goods and services, reliability, and participant testimonials. The table below demonstrates relationships and metrics that these surveys will capture and quantify.
Benefit(s) | Metric(s) | Evaluation Method(s) | Data Source | Reportable Outcomes |
Improve students’ access to schools | Number of school buses deployed, number of student riders, number of trips | Analyze student ridership data | School district transportation data | Number of student riders, number of school buses deployed, number of trips |
Transportation cost savings made possible by investments | Transportation cost savings calculated by different modes from the benefits calculator | Benefits calculator | Mode data reported by the grantees | Transportation cost savings from new mobility options relative to driving, owning, and maintaining a private automobile |
