Over the past decade communications technology has been rapidly becoming a key resource in our nation's transit systems. New technologies from other industries have enabled us to offer more features and services than ever before. These advances, however, have not been without their drawbacks. Issues such as obsolesence, incompatibility, security, reliability and lack of basic resources have been the norm in transit because of the unique applications in transit.

In September 2005, the Communications Subcommittee was formed under Research and Technology to assist the transit industry in managing this key resource. Our mission is three fold:

• Promote the appropriate use of technology in mission critical applications
• Reduce risk in adopting technologies in transit
• Ensure that key communications resources are available for mission critical transit applications

If you are a technology professional, a transit professional, or other iterested party; please come and join us. We'd love to hear from you.

Sincerely,

Barry Einsig

Chairman
