NOTE: Directional route-miles is the mileage in each direction over which public
transportation vehicles travel while in revenue service. Directional route-miles
are a measure of the facility or roadway, not the service carried on the facility
such as the number of routes or vehicle-miles. Directional route-miles are computed
with regard to direction of service, but without regard to the number of traffic
lanes or rail tracks existing in the right-of-way.
