The purpose of the Advanced Group Rapid Transit (AGRT) program was to develop an advanced automated guideway transit system capable of providing high passenger volumes, short waiting times, and high levels of passenger service. The system developed consists of small, automated vehicles operating on a single lane guideway at short headways with unmanned, off-line stations. The work in the report summarizes the work performed by Boeing Aerospace Company under the AGRT program, Contract Number DOT-UT-80041. The AGRT program summarized in the report focuses on the identification of the critical technologies required to safely command and control the movement of unmanned vehicles along a guideway.
