(1) will encourage and provide for efficient and economical mass transit;
(2) will facilitate access to mass transit and provide for other mass transit purposes;
(3) will reduce vehicular congestion and air pollution in the metropolitan area; and
(4) is reasonably essential to the successful operation of the transit authority system.
