The latest issue of TRB’s LRT (Light Rail Transit) News is now available.  With the support of the Federal Transit Administration, the LRT News is published intermittently by TRB to disseminate information on new developments in light rail transit planning, technology, and operations. The newsletter also reports on new studies, completed research, and current literature.  Articles in this issue include a call for papers for the 11th Joint Light Rail Transit Conference, as well as information on LRT activities in Portland, Oregon; Seattle, Washington; Charlotte, North Carolina; Toronto, Canada; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
