Abstract: The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) embarked on a research program entitled “Efficient Deployment of Advanced Public Transportation Systems” (EDAPTS) in the late 1990’s. The Bronco Express EDAPTS Stage 5 Deployment Demonstrationproject at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (Cal Poly Pomona) is an integral part of this program. Its objective is to go through the procurement and deployment process of a low cost Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) solution to determine if the EDAPTS concepts are optimized for small transit agencies and if they can be successfully transitioned to the commercial marketplace. This report documents the installation, verification, and validation steps associated with the Bronco Express EDAPTS Demonstration project. It identifies and summarizes procedures that are effective in installing and testing a lower-cost ITS system and provides a practical methodology for verifying and validating small transit ITS systems. It also documents outcomes of the installed system in compliance with the user needs and the performance specifications as requested in the Bronco Express EDAPTS RFP.
