Abstract:

This project conducted an energy assessment of the Morgantown (West Virginia) Rapid Transit System, performed upgrades to improve the system’s energy efficiency, assessed the current state of the small transit vehicle industry, and provided recommendations to improve the features, durability, and procurement processes of transit vehicles used to provide transit services in rural communities. The Brevi Bus prototype developed at Ride Solution in Palatka, Florida, was specifically designed to address these unique vehicle requirements of rural transit providers. Further vehicle development based on the Brevi Bus design could dramatically improve upon the features of current vehicle offerings.
