| 摘要： | Until recently the focus in traffic signal preemption and priority has been on developing and extending the capabilities of various technologies and studying their impact on real or hypothetical traffic flows. As these technologies have been implemented, however institutional issues both before and after implementation have been recognized as significant. This paper examines the differing issues needs, and concerns that elected officials and transit, traffic and emergency personnel in the Washington, D.C. region have regarding the implementation, installation, maintenance and use of both types of systems. Based on interviews with 37 area officials, system objectives and requirements were identified. The agencies and jurisdictions represented have very different levels of familiarity and experience with preemption and priority systems. For a signal preemption system the objectives identified were that it shall significantly reduce response time to emergencies, improve the safety and health of emergency personnel, and reduce accidents between non-emergency vehicles due to the passage of responding emergency units at intersections where it is installed. Stakeholders also suggested four policy requirements for priority systems. |
