Abstract:This report summarizes the activities that occurred as part of the FTA Mission to India conducted in September 2008. The mission provided the opportunity to members of the U.S. delegation to meet with senior Indian transportation officials, and to learn of India’s current plans for transportation infrastructure improvements. The tour was also designed to identify any lessons learned for the U.S. transit industry, particularly in relation to the implementation and operation of Bus Rapid Transit systems, and to identify opportunities for U.S. transit industry involvement in the development of India’s transportation infrastructure. The mission itinerary included visits to Delhi, Visakhapatnam, Hyderabad, and Mumbai. A highlight of the mission was the signing of a Memorandum of Cooperation between the United States Department of Transportation Federal Transit Administration and the State of Maharashtra while in Mumbai. The Memorandum is designed to facilitate knowledge exchange between the two countries in the fields of public transportation, science and technology.
