Baltimore Region Rapid Transit System. Phase I. Volume I, Metropolitan Transit Authority
The report documents work completed under Phase 1 of a program to design a rail rapid transit system for Baltimore. Of the six proposed corridors, attention is focused on two in which revenue service is slated to begin by 1978. Principal objectives of this study were to refine and adjust earlier planning and design in accordance with current policies and to continue the preliminary system engineering. The technical discussion examines route alignments; stations; vehicle selection; program schedule; capital cost estimates; forecasts of patronage, operating costs, and revenues; operating systems such as vehicles, electrification, ventilation and heating, control and communications, fare collection, surveillance, etc.; and work conducted by other consultants to the project.
