The contract is part of three projects underway to restore or repair PATH rail transit facilities and track damaged or destroyed during the Sept. 11 World Trade Center attacks. Provisions under the contract include the US&S Microlok II wayside control system, Genisys II non-vital logic emulators for execution of non-vital control logic and 60-hertz track circuits.
