Is 24-NH6 open beyond the UMTRI UDIG geometry?
The SecureRide Coalition is reviewing different geometry and locations beyond the UDIG concept specific to UMTRI.
The Coalition is developing a wheelchair securement standard that can be applied to personal vehicles, rideshares, public transit, as well as buses, rail and low-speed shuttles. University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI) is one of the Coalition members. The Coalition will address the technical solutions for a wheelchair securement standard (such as WC19) and publish test results on various securement systems, i.e. wheelchair tiedowns and occupant restraint systems (WTORS). https://unitedspinal.org/secureride/

Geometry/location beyond UDIG will be considered; however, a bidder must justify their reasoning for any proposed alternative geometry/location.
