This project examines the possible roles that public transit agencies can fulfill in the emergency management plans of their cities and/or counties. This report summarizes the first two phases of the project, which incorporate a review of available literature on emergency and disaster management planning, a review of the state of the practice among transit agencies in Texas, an examination of the legal and institutional issues that affect emergency planning and response, and a summary of possible transit roles with jurisdictional emergency management plans.
