Abstract:

Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) is an emerging technology that has the potential to reduce the emission of greenhouse

gases and the consumption of petroleum products by reducing vehicle miles traveled (VMT). This research study

funded by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and the New York State

Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) evaluates the feasibility of implementing a PRT system and policies to

promote transit oriented development (TOD) in Ithaca, NY. The report documents the history and current state of PRT

development. It defines the various components of a PRT system and identifies the most appropriate components for

application in Ithaca. Through economic and environmental assessments, the study documents how the PRT system

together with TOD will reduce vehicle miles travelled, enhance the quality of life and promote economic development

in New York’s small and mid-sized cities.
