From page 76...
... For example, San Francisco Ferry Building Gate E, with ferry service from San Francisco to Vallejo and Richmond, experienced more passenger volume compared to Gates F or G Although data observations do not reflect capacity conditions, data collection supported the research team's findings related to ramp slope and width, and secondary findings related to bow- versus side loading operations.
From page 77...
... The passenger travel time after fare collection is dependent on the length of the ramp (how far passengers must walk) and the average walk speed (how fast passengers walk)
