Transportation Services

Patrick Kass, director Transportation Services, discussed the challenges facing his unit as a precursor to the study Bob Purvis is chairing, “how the transportation funding and plans for making up the deficit impacts [academic] staff.” The mission of Transportation Services is to “provide innovative transportation solutions that service and support the university community.” Following a peer review and an internal audit, Kass learned major programs are outpacing revenues so much so that he is operating with a $1 million annual loss. The majority of the financial burden is on permit holders. As surface parking lots are lost to new building construction and new parking structures, expenses are rising faster than income. According to the Campus Master Plan surface lots will be replaced with parking structures which have a higher cost per parking space.  Hence, the campus forums which were held in the spring to help find a way to cover the deficit.  Two programmatic changes will be in effect this year: evening permits and restricting car pools to one permit. This next year transportation services will be exploring a variety of options to reduce the deficit.  The bus pass will continue to be complementary for the ’10-’11 school year.  For more information check out:  http://www2.fpm.wisc.edu/trans/aboutus.asp.
