Abstract:By the end of 1982, automated guideway transit (AGT) systems will have carried over 500 million passengers since their first commercial operation of the Tampa International Airport in 1971. To keep abreast of the domestic use of AGT systems in the U.S., UMTA has sponsored studies on the cost experience of selected domestic AGT systems. Presented in these documents are the capital costs, operations and maintenance (O&M) costs, and system characteristics of selected AGT systems currently operating in the U.S. Evaluation of trends and comparisons with other transportation modes are also presented. This report provides cost information about 15 domestic AGT systems. Capital costs, in 1981 dollars, for 13 systems are provided. O&M data for calendar year 1981 is provided for all 15 systems. Additional information about numbers of passengers, system availability and system characteristics is also provided. The 15 AGT systems examined in this report are: Busch Gardens, Williamsburg; Dallas-Fort Worth Airport (AIRTRANS); Duke University Medical Center; Fairlane Shopping Center; Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport; Houston Intercontinental Airport; King's Dominion Amusement Park; Miami International Airport; Minnesota Zoological Gardens; Orlando International Airport; Pearlridge Center; Seattle-Tacoma International Airport; Tampa International Airport; Walt Disney World; and Morgantown West Virginia University System.
