The Accelerating Walkway System (AWS) demonstration program was designed to test the feasibility of operating such a system in an urban setting. Based on an initial feasibility study, the New Jersey Transit commuter railroad station at Hoboken was selected as the demonstration site, located specifically at the connection between the New Jersey Transit commuter rail station and the east end of the mezzanine level of the Port Authority Trans-Hudson station. The demonstration was designed to provide information about the mechanical performance of the system under actual operating conditions, monitor passenger usage, and evaluate public acceptance of the system. This report describes the program of site engineering work that was planned by the Port Authority's Engineering Department in preparation for the installation and operation of the TRAX walkway system, including the excavation, equipment, foundation design, installation, and site restoration plans, as well as related cost, scheduling, and specifications data.
