4 APM Industry Overview

5 What is an APM? Fully Automated & Driverless Transit System Exclusive Right of Way / Guideway Proprietary System Designs Not Interchangeable Varying System Characteristics & Facility Designs A Continuum of Systems

6 APM Typical Characteristics Fully Automated Driverless Electrically Self-Propelled Rubber Tire / Steel Wheel-Rail / Air / Maglev Bottom Supported Exclusive Right of Way / Guideway Elevated, At-Grade, In Tunnel Passengers / Vehicle 1-6 Cars / Train

7 Types of APM Systems Cable Monorail AGT Maglev PRT Concepts / Emerging Technologies

8 History of APMs Developed initially for Urban use, APMs have thrived at Airports Initial Federal Funding via HUD Pittsburgh s Skybus Project in 1965 Airport Implementation Tampa ( 71), SeaTac ( 73) & DFW ( 74) 39 Current Applications Worldwide Shuttles Pinched Loops Regions of the World

9 APMs and Their Roles at Airports Airside Allows more gates & greater distance O/D and hubbing / connecting operations Landside Reduces airport roadway congestion / emissions Connects separate terminals Consolidation of Rental Car operations Augments regional transit & airport access

10 APMs at Top U.S. Airports

12 Funding Approaches Traditional Bonds PFC s / CFC s Added Revenue Potential Advertising Concession nodes at stations Joint development around stations Rail Funding Sources State Federal Alternative Strategies DBOM P3 Public Private Partnership

13 Contracting Methods

14 Procurement Approach The Procurement Approach must be structured to: Give the Flexibility to Cost-effectively Meet Program Performance Requirements, and Define and Assign Responsibility for Program Risks Performance Requirements Cost Control Schedule Control Ridership / Perceived Value to Users Interface with Existing Infrastructure Minimize Impact on Existing Airport Operations

20 Contracting Summary The Suggested Approach: Is tailored to Specific Requirements of the Airport Automated People Mover work, Assigns Program Risks to the Party with the Best Ability to Control Risks, Accommodates a Variety of System Technologies, Fosters Competitive Pricing on both Operating System and Fixed Facilities Contracts, and Provides Opportunity for Local Designers and Contractors.

21 ACRP APM Projects Sponsored by: Airport Cooperative Research Program/Transportation Research Board of The National Academies

22 ACRP Guidebook for Planning and Implementing Automated People Mover Systems at Airports Start Date: June 2007 End Date: July 2009 Research Contractor: Lea+Elliott, Inc. Principal Investigator: David D. Little, AICP

23 Draft Outline of Guidebook Introduction Needs Assessment Needs vs. Conveyance Technologies Initial Technology Assessment APM System Definition Determining Appropriate Type of Analysis for defining Alignment, Demand, Capacity, MSF Feasibility / Risk / Funding / Security Appendices

24 ACRP Guidebook for Measuring Performance of Automated People Mover Systems at Airports Start Date: June 13, 2007 End Date: July 12, 2009 Research Contractor: Lea+Elliott, Inc. Principal Investigator: Christopher M. Gambla

25 ACRP Project Objective The objective of ACRP Project is to develop a user-friendly guidebook for measuring performance of APM systems at airports The guidebook is to identify a set of performance measures and associated data requirements for airport APM operators to assess and improve performance, compare APM systems, and plan and design future APM systems The performance measures are to address the efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of APM systems at airports.
