The undersigned have, in agreement, come to the conclusion that drastic changes must be made to the transportation system at West Virginia University. The Personal Rapid Transit System (PRT), which is the only practical link between the Medical, Evansdale, and Downtown campuses, has become unreliable over the course of it's existence and needs to be properly updated in order to better serve the students and faculty of West Virginia University. We hereby petition the complete restoration and update of the entire PRT system in hopes that we will one day have an effective means of travel. A drastic revamping of the PRT will provide students and faculty with an adequate means of safe transit and the ability to stay punctual for all classes and affairs. We beg that West Virginia University take the steps towards a great improvement for all parties which utilize the transportation system it provides.
I am currently organizing the data regarding reported PRT delays to prepare a formal submission for the university administration. This evidence shows a pattern of service gaps that we will present during our upcoming meeting with campus facilities leadership.

The volume of support has now reached a scale that demands a formal response from the university administration. I am currently finalizing a letter to the Board of Governors to request a meeting regarding the modernization timeline. Expect an update on their reply once I receive word.
