AMR Leader-Follower System Evaluation

An Accelerated Market Readiness Grant was awarded by FHWA to implement another Leader-Follower System in Springfield Missouri. This is similar to project TR201813. Project TR202119 is being done in conjunction with this project and will be an independent evaluation of both the Springfield and Kansas City systems. As part of that grant, Missouri wishes to hire a consultant to do an independent third-party evaluation of how both the Kansas City and Southwest District systems are functioning as well as identify what are some of the obstacles other state DOTs see as barriers to implementation.
