The AMTT system concept is considered as a viable alternative form of public transportation for selected applications. The basic AMTT concept is that of fully-automated vehicles operating on non-exclusive guideways in areas where pedestrian and/or automotive traffic also exists. In such applications the vehicles will operate at low speeds (up to 9 km/hr). Other applications include hybrid systems which will also operate at a higher speed (up to 50 km/hr) within protected rights-of-way. This report discusses the results of an assessment of safety aspects and issues associated with the AMTT vehicle system which is under development by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL).
