SEATTLE PRT STUDY. VOLUME II. TECHNICAL SUPPLEMENT

In 1969 and 1970, the City of Seattle became one of five selected medium sized cities to be included in the Center Cities Transportation Project (CCTP). Increased interest in PRT/people-mover technology culminated in a three-party agreement and ultimately led to the current investigation and analysis of automated transit technology. The Technical Supplement Volume consists of ten individually self-contained Appendices documenting a specific study or feature.
