In an effort to increase the seismic resiliency of our transportation network, a performance centric retrofit measure has been developed as part of State funded research and evaluated through to large scale laboratory setting. With an eye toward implementation, this technology transfer proposal aims to conduct a feasibility study on incorporating this retrofit measure with a recently developed ductile fuse technology and applying the retrofit to a real bridge case study. The intent is to deve... Read More

Real-time transit information has many benefits to transit riders and agencies, including shorter perceived and actual wait times, a lower learning curve for new riders, an increased feeling of safety, and increased ridership. In the last few years, a real-time complement to the General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) format, GTFS-realtime, has emerged. GTFS-realtime has the potential to standardize real-time data feeds and lead to widespread adoption for transit agencies and multimodal app... Read More
