On December 16, 2010, the NJTPA hosted a special presentation on Personal Rapid Transit (PRT). The presenter was Dr. Ed Anderson of PRT International, Minneapolis, MN, who has been working for many years to acquaint planners and decision makers with the potential of an optimized version of PRT for solving urban transportation problems. 
 
Dr. Anderson was one of the industry experts surveyed as part of the 2007 report entitled “The Viability of Personal Rapid Transit in New Jersey,” prepared by the Rutgers Voorhees Transportation Center for the NJ DOT Bureau of Research and NJ Transit.  .
 
Dr. Anderson provided an introduction to his work on PRT through a 45 minute presentation, available for downloading.
