Objective Category
System Reliability: Transit On-Time Performance

These objectives focus on travel time reliability for transit users as measured by on-time performance. There is often a tolerance interval of time such that it arrives at a stop within x minutes of arrival schedule and does not depart from that stop more than x minutes after scheduled departure time.
