Abstract

The associate administrator for technical assistance and safety, Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA), discusses the UMTA perspective on HOV facilities. He comments on one of UMTA's earliest HOV efforts, the blue streak demonstration project in Seattle, discusses the potential for improving the operation of HOV facilities using intelligent vehicle highway system (IVHS) technologies, discusses the relationship of HOV facilities to the four elements of UMTA's advanced public transportation systems (APTS) program, and comments on the significance for HOV facilities of the unification of the federal transit assistance and federal highway programs under the current reauthorization of these programs. This conference was conducted by the Transportation Research Board, National Research Council, Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle and Washington State Department of Transportation in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration and the Urban Mass Transportation Administration.
