Abstract: The main objectives of this study are to: 1) systematically classify new transit technologies and their impacts, 2) use the classification structure for exploring availability of new transit technologies, and 3) introduce technology developers to the California Advanced Public Transportation System (CAPTS) program. A structure is developed and applied for investigating the availability of new technologies in the market. The classification structure is based on a conceptualization of how technology attributes and technology performance will impact travelers and operators. After developing a taxonomy for classification of new transit technologies, survey research is used to explore the commercial availability of technologies.
