A variety of Urban Rail Transit (URT) systems have been operating and they have different technology bases, causing a lot of difficulties in taking measures against trouble, training, upgrading, interoperability and so on. As such, a standardization project has been carried out to solve the problems by setting up the national standards for URT systems. A common database was built to provide the integrated engineering environment to the community of URT project. This paper discusses the design of the database and how it can be utilized in the successful promotion of the project. The products of the projects are stored into the database with traceability management to be referred to by other new URT projects for reusing and sharing the acquired knowledge through cross organizations.
