Industry Description |
|
|
The Transit & Ground Passenger Transportation industry includes a variety of passenger transportation activities,such as urban transit systems; chartered bus, school bus, and interurban bus transportation; and taxis. These activities are distinguished based primarily on such production process factors as vehicle types, routes, and schedules.
This industry also includes Scenic and Sightseeing Transportation which includes establishments that utilize transportation equipment to provide recreation and entertainment. These activities have a production process distinct from passenger transportation carried out for the purpose of other types of for-hire transportation. This process does not emphasize efficient transportation; in fact, such activities often use obsolete vehicles,such as steam trains, to provide some extra ambience. The activity is local in nature, usually involving a same-day return to the point of departure. |
