| 摘要： | To provide federal agencies with a logical plan of attack for the Year 2000 (Y2K) problem, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) set up a five-phased approach with deadlines for each phase for mission-critical systems: awareness--December 31, 1996; assessment--August 31, 1997; renovation--September 30, 1998; validation/testing--January 31, 1999; and implementation--March 31, 1999. All of the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Y2K work for all five phases has been completed according to the OMB schedule. To provide information on FHWA's Y2K program and easy access to the Y2K programs and best practices of other organizations, they created the FHWA Year 2000 Web page (http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/y2k/index.htm), which provides quick links to extensive information on the Y2K Web sites of the state Departments of Transportation (DOTs) and many other transportation organizations, as well as to other federal agencies involved in Y2K issues. Because many traffic control systems either run on a time-of-day mode or use time-of-day mode as a back-up for a real-time or traffic-responsive mode of operation, they can present special Y2K problems. FHWA has recommended that each organization that operates traffic control systems contact each system's developer and/or supplier to determine if that system will be affected by the Y2K problem. The Transportation Research Board (TRB) included three major Y2K programs in their January 1999 annual TRB meeting. |
