Key West Transit Development Plan FY2025-2034

3.4 Peer Review Analysis

Four screen factors were used to ensure that potential peers operate in a similar manner to KWT. The first screen eliminated agencies that operate rail. The second screen confined the “Select Benchmarking Level” to “Motor Bus” instead of “Agency Wide” as specified in the Urban iNTD Quick Guide. Under the third screen, likeness scores were calculated using the iNTD spreadsheet tool. For instance, a score of “0” would indicate that the peer and KWT values are exactly alike, and a score of “1” indicates that the potential peers value is twice that of KWT. The values inputted for Key West Transit in this database were obtained from both the iNTD Rural and Census Quick Facts for the City of Key West, Florida 2022 5-year estimate. Screening Factors Score Computation Table 3-7 details how the likeness score of each of the screening criteria selected from the Urban iNTD database outputs were calculated.
