In 1997, the Ann Arbor (Michigan) Transportation Authority began deploying advanced public transportation systems (APTS) technologies in its fixed route and paratransit operations. The project's concept is the integration of a range of such technologies into a comprehensive system, termed the 'Advanced Operating System' (AOS) to 'smart buses', 'smart travelers,' and a 'smart operation center' to benefit from timely and coordinated information on critical aspects of transit operation and maintenance. This study provides a detailed baseline analysis of telephone system performance before AOS implementation. By the time of the preparation of this report, the phone system component of AOS had not been implemented. |
