In general, the main objective of this study was to find ways to extend the reach of public transportation systems in Morgantown, West Virginia, and provide users with more convenient and economical modes of transportation. This research investigates the integration of the Morgantown Downtown People Mover (DPM) system with other transportation systems, namely, the bus system and private autos, into one comprehensive system that better serves the needs of the city. The Morgantown DPM (or Personal Rapid Transit) system is a new mode of public transportation; it is a fully automated computer-controlled system. The rubber-tired vehicles are electrically powered, and the stations are off-line, so that the flow of vehicles is not disrupted by stops at each station.
