FAQs about LTc5 :

What are the criteria for whether we are allowed to count future or planned transit stops?

Our project is located in a place without any existing or planned formal transit networks. How can we achieve this credit?

What’s the difference between a commuter rail, light rail, and heavy rail transit system? I’m having trouble figuring out how to categorize the different types of transit serving my project.

Would a university or corporate campus shuttle service count towards this credit?

How can i calculate transit average trips for street car? i asked the workers and people living in the area of the project and they mentioned that street car (for specific route) passes average between every 10 to 15 minutes meaning minimum 4 trips per hour , should i multiply the 4 trips by occupancy hours (4 *8) meaning 32 trips per day ? or should i multiply it by 24 hours ? also according to LEED Interpretation ID# 10003 http://www.usgbc.org/content/li-10003 the hailing system can be counted towards the credit without a specified official stop , is this still available for v4 ?

Hi Soha, You would take the hours the street car runs (if it runs 12 hours a day then do 4*8) and multiple by 4-6 (shuttle stops per hour) to get the total. Not by the 8 hour work days. As long as the shuttle runs during any hours of the day you can include that as a trip. Not sure about the hailing system but i would assume you can use that still if the street car takes a trip by the "stop"
