| Abstract | The Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Program held a meeting on BRT Vehicle Design on February 9, 2001, at its headquarters in Washington, DC. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss BRT vehicle issues with transit agencies and transit manufacturers /suppliers in an effort to promote cooperation. The meeting opened with a review of the FTA's overall BRT vehicle design and deployment strategy. This was followed by a discussion of the BRT vehicle strategy. Reviews of ongoing FTA activities were provided as background, with presentations on the European Scanning Tour, the Vehicle Design Competition, and a draft of the BRT Vehicle White Paper. An open forum on BRT vehicle design was then held, concentrating on cooperation among stakeholders and the support of technological deployment in BRT vehicles. A list of attendees is included. |
