Source: National Transit Database 2006-2010 <br />Figure 3-6 Total Vehicles Figure 3-7 VOMS <br />Spare ratio measures the difference between the number of vehicles available and the number <br />of vehicles operated in maximum service, divided by the number of vehicles in maximum <br />service. Low spare ratios may indicate potential issues in terms of the ability to schedule <br />preventative maintenance and a lack of vehicle capacity to respond to increased demand for <br />service, while high spare ratios may indicate an inefficient use of capital. Based on 2010 <br />NTD data, the average spare ratio for agencies with between 10 and 30 vehicles was 43 <br />percent. The median of GoLine's peer group was higher (approximately 75 percent). In <br />2010, GoLine's 50 percent spare ratio was within an acceptable range. <br />3-11 <br />Stanley Consultants a <br />
