Abstract: Several factors have motivated the development of Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS); among them are growing traffic congestion, concern for environmental degradation, the need to improve safety, and the desire to best utilize existing transportation infrastructure. Within the framework of M-IS, Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) will provide historical, real-time and predictive information to support travel decisions. ATIS offers significant benefits interms of improving the travel experience of individuals and enhancing system performance. In the long-term, ATIS may reduce congestion and pollution, improve safety and increase mobility. However, the true potential of these systems has not been evaluated. To do this, an ATIS testbed in the Bay Area is proposed.
