Abstract:The workshop focused on current methods of assessing the effectiveness of crime and vandalism reduction methods that are used in conventional urban mass transit systems, and on how they might be applied to new AGT systems. Conventional as well as novel methods of assessment were presented and discussed. Among the major issues discussed were the use of critical incident techniques to assess the community's needs with regard to transit security; the establishment of a board similar to the National Transportation Safety Board, which will focus on security issues; and the role of security specialists and management in transit planning. The imformation herein should be of interest to transit security planners and researchers, law enforcement agencies, planners of AGT systems, and in general those people who are concerned with the problems of crime and vandalism in transit systems.
