The 1995 National Conference on Light Rail Transit (LRT) is the seventh such meetings. The six proper national conferences have paralleled the development and reintroduction of LRT North American. The seventh national conference emphasizes the lessons resulting from the maturing of North American LRT systems. There are 18 sessions and several technical tours of Baltimore's LRT system. The Transit Cooperative Research Program, which was introduced by the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, is featured with two sessions. Other subjects cover the state of the art in light rail vehicles, intermodal connections, implications of the Americans with Disabilities Act, urban design considerations, safety and security planning, and operations maintenance issues. The objective of these conferences is to add to the growing body of knowledge and real-world experiences with modern LRT applications in order to continuously improve the systems being planned and those already in operation.
