New Report: “Transit Bus Operator Temporary Barrier to Reduce COVID-19 Exposure”

Published on: September 6, 2022

FTA recently published the Transit Bus Operator Temporary Barrier to Reduce COVID-19 Exposure Report as part of the FTA Standards Development Program. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, transit agencies across the U.S. implemented temporary measures to protect transit workers. This report demonstrates how a physical temporary barrier between the front and rear passenger compartment of a transit bus reduces the COVID-19 exposure risk for operators and passengers. In addition, the report shares the results of an air flow test of the temporary barrier.
