Abstract:

The Morgantown Project is an Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA) demonstration, to provide personal rapid transit (PRT) service between the central business district and the separated campuses of West Virginia University. The Morgantown PRT system is an automated, two mode (scheduled and demand) transit system. The system consists of a fleet of electrically powered, rubber-tired, passenger-carrying vehicles, operating on a dedicated guidewav network at close headway (vehicle separation.) The system provides a safe, comfortable, low polluting, reliable means of transportation. A high level of availability and reliability is afforded in terms of passenger service. The system features year-round operation, as well as direct origin-to-destination service.
