Visit to Transportation Technology Center, Pueblo, Colorado


On June 28-29, 2017, CUTR’s Transit Standards Working Group continued their work during a meeting hosted by CUTR’s project partner, the Transportation Technology Center, Inc., in Pueblo, Colorado. One primary objective of the meeting was the validation and prioritization of the project team’s initial list of transit safety standard focus areas for consideration. In addition, the group was tasked with the review and input to focus area research activities and associated recommendations for FTA related to: event data recorders for rail and bus; crashworthiness/CEM for rail and bus; emergency lighting and signage for rail; and tunnel standards.
