Membership

The Advanced Transit Association (ATRA) is an international association of companies within the industry and individuals: active and retired transportation professionals, engineers, architects, urban planners, students, educators, and enthusiasts.  It is a diverse group of people brought together by the common realization that the transportation systems of the past cannot meet the transportation needs of the future, or even the present.  A non-profit corporation, ATRA’s purpose is not to promote the interests of its members, but rather to encourage the development and deployment of advanced transportation systems that will be a boon to everyone.  Membership is open to anyone who is willing to take a fresh look at new ways to meet our transportation needs.  We do not endorse any particular company or system, but we serve as an objective information resource to help decision makers navigate the often complex issues surrounding transportation choices.
