NEWS:
Peter Muller of PRT Consulting reports that Vectus'
safety case has been finalized and submitted to the
Swedish Rail Authority. They've proven they meet
and exceed the SRA's safety requirements for PRT.
Peter also reports that ULTra will begin operational
testing at Heathrow in June. And see Peter's latest
PowerPoint on PRT in Sustainability issues here.
We're presenting this treatment to the Los
Angeles/Orange County (Metro/OCTA) Intercounty
Study technical advisory committee on 4/15. PRT is
the most viable alternative for a transit system in
the Pacific Electric Right-of-Way.
We've recently answered an RFQ for four Orange
County cities in response to the OC Transportation
Authority's Go Local program. Details available on
request.
We're quoted in the 4/6/08 Los Angeles Times.
PRT Strategies successfully presented this
treatment for Personal Rapid Transit in the LA/OC
Counties Pacific Electric Right-of-Way to the
Gateway Cities Council of Governments --
suggesting that PRT is a better alternative than the
failing Orangeline maglev (03.05.08). Orangeline
has been rejected for use in the PE RoW by OCTA
and removed from SCAG's Constrained Regional
Transportation Plan.
For our friends at the Airport Working Group in
Newport Beach, our presentation from last June
('07) to your City Aviation Committee is here.
Check out our new treatment for PRT along Orange
County's Santa Ana River on the Huntington Beach

Association of Governments RTP Workshop on

Angeles to Respond to the Needs of the Riders“.

Movement and generating electricity from trackway
using solar.

Southern California Regional Airport Authority on
9/12 to recommend the consideration of PRT
between LA/Ontario Airport and central Orange

underutilized facility.

PRT Strategies presentation to the Transportation
Planning & Operations Committee of the Orange
County Transportation Authority on July 12th was
very well received. Three potential applications in
Orange County were presented where light rail and
other mass transit forms simply aren't practical and
certainly aren't cost effective.
