This synthesis documents agency practices, innovations, and lessons learned in track maintenance costs. Its purpose is to identify the factors that influence these costs. Foundation information is presented here for transit agency managers, maintenance and operations staffs, and other professionals involved in developing a program for practitioners to actively manage track maintenance costs. The synthesis includes findings from a literature review. It incorporates survey responses from select rail transit agencies, east and west coast, old and new in age. Furthermore, it closely examines organization, practice, and budgeting at three transit agencies in more in-depth case studies to further development of a matrix of factors that influence costs. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Transportation Research Board, Washington, DC.
