摘要: |
The objective of the study reported was to demonstrate the use of analytical methods in addressing societal issues attendant to implementation of intelligent transportation system technology. The objective was met by identifying the societal issues of relevance in an operational field test in Michigan, preparing an ordered inventory of such societal issues, identifying analytical methods that can be used in addressing the societal issues, and demonstrating the use of such analytical methods in addressing selected societal issues. The operational field test studied in this report is the ITS Faster and Safer Travel through Traffic Routing and Advanced Controls (FAST-TRAC) program in Oakland County, Michigan. Methods by which the application of analytical methods in addressing societal issues could have improved the deployment of ITS technology are illustrated. The societal issues analyzed are equity and access for assisted-living- facility residents who are transportation disadvantaged. Two focus groups were conducted with (1) eight residents of assisted-living facilities; and (2) nine FAST-TRAC participants. The data collected in the focus groups were analyzed in several ways including analytical hierarchy process and cluster analysis. |
