Description: The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) requests proposals from public entities that will ultimately result in the award of one or more cooperative agreements to support development, operational testing and evaluation of a rail transit overlay system to provide real time train location information in subways to a control center. A series of rail transit incidents that provided inexact train location during emergencies underscores the need for a proven subway train location technology for rail transit systems.
