Book Intelligent Transportation Systems

Download or read book Intelligent Transportation Systems written by Sundaravalli Narayanaswami and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-11-29 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transportation-related challenges exist all over the world, with all countries struggling to develop efficient, effective and user-friendly transportation systems. Today, policy agencies and financing institutions are keen to invest heavily for a potentially good transport systems, as good mobility is pertinent to social growth and a sustainable environment. Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have become a global area of growth in recent times because of increasing demand for mobility, rampant urbanization, and depleting energy reserves. Existing conventional transport infrastructure fails to meet the ever-increasing demand; building additional transportation infrastructure is cumbersome, as it is time-consuming and capital-intensive and available land space is very limited. Therefore, there is a pressing need for innovative and locally relevant systems that can be built rapidly with less investment by leveraging advances in technology. Good ITS enable informed decision-making for all stakeholders. This book presents the ingredients of good ITS, not from a technology perspective, but from a business administration, management, and policy perspective. The emphasis is on practice-oriented, impactful and context relevant systems. Short, real-life case studies are presented for each topic, to keep the discerning transportation enthusiast engaged.

Book 511 National Progress Report

Download or read book 511 National Progress Report written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In July 2000, the Federal Communications Commission designated 511 as the nationwide telephone number for traveler information. The FCC left most implementation issues and schedules to state and local agencies and telecommunication agencies. This report documents the progress made through February 2003 in making 511 a national reality. Major milestones include the creation of the National 511 Deployment Coalition, the activation of the first 511 system in June 2002, the publication of implementation guidelines, the availability of planning grants, a national survey on customer expectations and creation of a vision statement. As of February 2003, fifteen 511 services were operational, and a total of 39 states and the District of Columbia were operating implementing, or planning 511 services. The Deployment Coalition hopes that by 2010, 511 will be operating throughout the United States. Key issues facing implementers include growth management, sustainability, interoperability, marketing, performance measures and the underlying content of the information.

Book Operational and Institutional Agreements that Facilitate Regional Traffic Signal Operations

Download or read book Operational and Institutional Agreements that Facilitate Regional Traffic Signal Operations written by Kevin N. Balke and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2011 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 420: Operational and Institutional Agreements That Facilitate Regional Traffic Signal Operations (RTSOPs) identifies and highlights critical attributes of successful RTSOPs across the United States. Regions can use RTSOPs to help improve traffic flow as it crosses from one jurisdiction to another. A central focus of these programs is the coordination of signal timing on multi-jurisdictional arterials; however, RTSOPs can also facilitate the consideration of other traffic operations measures to improve regional mobility. Many RTSOPs have been established through regional metropolitan planning organizations, and successful RTSOPs also have been established by other organizations, including state and local departments of transportation and government corporations.

Book Dallas Area wide Intelligent Transportation System Plan

Download or read book Dallas Area wide Intelligent Transportation System Plan written by James D. Carvell and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the development of a comprehensive plan for implementation of Intelligent Transportation Systems in the Dallas area. Objectives, findings, and recommendations are summarized as follows: 1. Develop a Broadly Based Steering Committee - A committee was formed with representatives from various transportation-related agencies including ten cities, Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), Dallas County, Dallas Area Rapid Transit, North Central Texas Council of Governments, FHWA, universities, several consultants, and other private sector companies. 2. Assess Existing TMS and Potential ITS Technology - An inventory of existing traffic management systems and transportation facilities was compiled. Thirty of the cities in the study area were surveyed to determine incident management procedures and to identify particular problems or needs. 3. Identify Institutional Issues and Legal Barriers - A workshop was held to examine any potential institutional issues which might be barriers to area-wide traffic management. It was generally agreed that a regional concept was essential, but not necessarily as a regional control center. The cities still wanted to have control of traffic management within their particular jurisdiction but were open to cooperative operation for incident conditions across city limit lines. Under incident conditions, predetermined, jointly developed signal timing plans would be called for from a Dallas Area Transportation Management Center (DATMC). 4. Develop an Implementable, Area-Wide Multi-Jurisdictional ITS Plan - Projects are defined for both freeway and surface street systems. Included are ATMS, ATIS, APTS, AVSS (AVCS), and CVO elements and their interaction. The DATMC will be operated by TxDOT but with sharing of video images and traffic data among the various operating issues over a wide-area network. Since a communications backbone network will not be in place for some time, much of the CCTV system will initially be in compressed video format transmitted over leased ISDN lines. The recommended plan reflects both State and National Architecture efforts. 5. Develop Costs, Benefits, and an Implementation Plan - Costs, benefits, and a staged implementation plan were developed and emphasize near-term improvements to incident management procedures, mobility assistance patrol upgrades, and other ITS elements. A medium- and long-term implementation plan is specified. A benefit:cost ratio of 17:1 was estimated for the recommended plan.
