| Abstract | The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA) requested that at least two urban transit investment projects be acquired by means of a process referred to as "turnkey", to demonstrate the concept and determine whether it can serve to "advance new technologies and lower the cost of constructing new transit systems". These guidelines are intended to be applied to the evaluation of prototype turnkey demonstration projects funded in part by the U.S. Congress and FTA. Their purpose is: 1) Provide those responsible for evaluating FTA turnkey projects a common set of guidelines from which to begin their evaluation; and 2) Provide a carefully structured overview for those considering application of the turnkey concept to projects other than the current prototype cases. |
