Virginia Tech MURP Students on Field Trip to Metro/WMATA Headquarters


On Thursday, 3 March 2011, a group of 15 MURP students participated in a field trip to the headquarters of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA)—possibly better known as Metro. The group visited the Emergency Operations Center and listened to presentations by WMATA experts on rail and bus operations planning, planning and joint development, emergency preparedness, and fire life safety. The trip was part of a Sustainable Transportation course and was lead by Professors Ralph Buehler and Kris Wernstedt.
