| 摘要： | The Washington, D.C., metropolitan region is the nation's second most congested area, and its residents have the second longest commute time, spending a cumulative 552,900 hours per day stuck in traffic. To bust congestion in the region, 26 public agencies and 13 private organizations are working together to bring a state-of-the-art traveler information network to the area. This unique partnership, called Partners In Motion, is dedicated to assisting motorists in making informed decisions on the most efficient means of reaching their destinations. The traveler information network provides on-demand, real-time, route-specific information on all modes of travel--highway, bus, rail, and air--in the Washington, D.C., area. Users of this network are able to access up-to-the-minute information regarding highway and transit conditions, as well as construction, weather, and special event information that could affect travel. This information is disseminated through a variety of existing and evolving technologies, including telephone, Internet, personal pagers, cable television, kiosks, and in-vehicle navigational devices. Sidebars list the public and private sector partners of Partners in Motion and provide details on the SmarTraveler Information System, the first of many products to be sponsored by the partnership. |
