Abstract: Optimal use of existing transportation facilities has become a major priority in congested urban areas. Providing real-time in-vehicle traffic information to drivers is one possibility of achieving this goal. This report documents an initial attempt to ascertain the potential benefits of a real-time in-vehicle traffic information system under recurring and non-recurring congestion conditions.
