This dissertation deals with the application of Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) in incident management. Using an idealized traffic corridor and deterministic queuing methods, conditions under which route guidance information is useful are identified. Benefits to traffic guided with...

TravInfo is a field operation test in the San Francisco Bay Area, designed to implement a centralized traveler information center to collect, integrate, and disseminate timely and accurate traveler information. The evaluation of TravInfo consists of four elements: institutional, traveler...

A model of drivers' route choice behavior under advanced traveler information systems (ATIS) is developed based on data collected from learning experiments using interactive computer simulation. A neural network model is used as a convenient modeling technique in the analysis. Results indicated...

This paper describes the experimental analysis techniques and modelling efforts applied to sequential pre-trip route choice behavior data under the influence of an Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS). This effort is the first step in a process to develop a basic understanding of the...

This study investigates issues concerning the implementation and impacts of lateral guidance/control systems and the phased implementation of these systems in exclusive-access High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes. The study is divided into 5 volumes. The objectives of each volume are as follows:...

This report reviews the recent studies adopted in order to understand drivers' behavior, and in particular, behavior when influenced by an Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS). Different approaches were used in these studies: field experiments, route choice surveys, interactive computer...
