This report documents the results from the Workshop on Integrating Transit with Advanced Traffic Management Systems, held in Houston, Texas on September 4 and 5, 1996. The workshop was sponsored by the Texas A&M Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Research Center of Excellence and the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI), a part of the Texas A&M University System. Co-sponsors of the workshop included the Metropolitan Transportation Authority of Harris County (METRO), Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART), the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), the Southwest Region University Transportation Center (SWUTC), and the South West Transit Association (SWTA). The workshop results are summarized in these proceedings. The workshop was held to discuss techniques to enhance the integration of public transit with Advanced Transportation Management Systems (ATMS).
