摘要：	The Transit IDEA (Innovations Deserving Exploratory Analysis) Program supports development and testing of innovative concepts and methods for advancing transit practice. The program funds applied research and development of promising approaches to improve the efficiency, safety, security, maintenance, and ridership of transit systems. The panel for the Transit IDEA Program, in cooperation with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and the American Public Transportation Association (APTA), designated high priority focus areas for the program, to encourage and fund proposals for innovative methods to address those priority needs. Following are the four current Transit IDEA Program focus areas, which support the FTA strategic research goals: (1) Increasing Transit Ridership (2) Improving Transit Safety, Security, and Emergency Preparedness (3) Improving Transit Capital and Operating Efficiencies (4) Protecting the Environment and Promoting Energy Independence This report describes the active and completed projects funded by the Transit IDEA program. It is a useful resource to transit agencies and others interested in innovations in transit practice. Summaries on the results and payoff potential of completed projects and descriptions of current projects are included in this report. A listing of completed Transit IDEA projects final reports is also included in this report.
