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...

This report summarizes the need for (dedicated) radio spectrum for IVHS communication services. It concludes that, if efficient architectures can be developed, several MHz of spectrum will be needed for large-scale introduction of IVHS services. Compared to most other reported estimates 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:...

The goal of this study was to provide a better understanding of the impacts of route guidance on urban arterials and networks controlled by traffic signals. Control and timing strategies to handle diverted traffic from the freeways to surface streets were developed and tested through simulation...

This report documents the current state of Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS) technologies in Europe with special attention to advanced traveler information systems (ATIS) and advanced traffic management systems (ATMS). The views presented in the report are largely derived from...

The objectives of this study were to select a traffic assignment and simulation model, apply that model to an integrated freeway/arterial network such as the Smart Corridor in Los Angeles, California, and, using the model, make an initial evaluation of in-vehicle information systems and 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 study includes a literature review of existing traffic simulation models potentially suited for evaluating advanced traffic control strategies and in-vehicle information systems within an integrated freeway/ arterial corridor. Chapter 1 presents a literature review and identification of...
