ON THE GO - URBAN IMMEDIATE CAPACITY TRANSIT SYSTEM PROGRAM

The legislature of Ontario, Canada is informed by the Minister of Transportation that the contract with the German company Krauss-Maffei for the Go-Urban Demonstration Program at C.N.E. has been terminated. The Ontario Transportation Development Corporation, OTDC, takes over existing research and development data. Ontario will have free access to the Krauss-Maffei test tracks and equipment in Munich. Ontario investment in a demonstration track can therefore be postponed. The future program will be Canadian directed. McDonnel Douglas will share cost and collaborate with ATDC. The new agreement between Ontario, OTDC and Krauss-Maffei is attached to the minister's statement.
