In the name of energy efficiency and conservation, the Department of Transportation (DOT) proposed a program to expand mass transit capacity and transit commuting. In addition, DOT proposed a new funding source for ridesharing as part of DOT efforts to double the number of commuters who carpool and vanpool. The proposals would be financed by revenues from the oil windfall profits tax. DOT is advocating a combined federal and local 10-year capital investment in mass transit of about $53 billion to increase transit capacity and ridership by 50 percent by 1990. Transit capacity expansion can provide benefits in terms of less congestion and pollution, employment opportunities, and urban revitalization. However, GAO is concerned that the decision to support transit expansion is being unduly influenced by the energy situation and the availability of windfall profits tax revenues and that not enough consideration has been given to potential adverse impacts of transit expansion on transit operating costs, deficits, and subsidies. Although the federal government has advocated greater use of ridesharing, progress has been slow in getting drive-alone commuters to switch to ridesharing.
