| Abstract | To protect passenger, employees, revenue, and property, transit systems are encouraged to take a proactive, prevention-oriented systems approach to transit security. This guide is a compilation of materials for planning and improving transit security. The format can be used by transit system planners, security personnel, and managers in developing plans, procedures, and capital programs. The guide is designed to help transit systems become aware of the procedures used nationwide by transit and other programs in their security tasks. The guide includes information on how to apply the systems approach to transit security planning and implementation; proactive materials on the prevention of security incidents; procedures for immediate and follow-up response to security incidents; and specific evaluations of a variety of special security problems including crimes and general security issues. The evaluations include information on the most important attributes of each security problem, namely: severity, frequency, type, affected areas, time when, locations, contributing factors, solution areas, solutions/approaches, personnel cost, facility/equipment cost, effectiveness, and application. |
