UNOFFICIAL HISTORY OF FEDERALLY FUNDED RESEARCH, DEMONSTRATIONS AND TRAINING: ISSUES FOR RECONSIDERATION (APPENDIX A-1: A RESEARCH AGENDA FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION)
This resource paper, prepared for a mid-year meeting of the public transportation committees of the Transportation Research Board, reviews the recent history of federal involvement in public transportation research and lays out some of the critical issues which must be addressed in establishing a national agenda for public transportation research, demonstration and development. The discussion focuses on the Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA) research program since this continues to be the dominant source of funding for transit research.
