S. and other countries, including what is being used by agencies in the U.S., (2) performing a gap analysis to determine deficiencies in current standards, and (3) establishing recommendations to FTA for developing voluntary standards, protocols, guidelines, or recommended practices associated with rail transit track inspection and maintenance.
