摘要：	The ADVANCE (Advanced Driver and Vehicle Advisory Navigation Concept) project is an ATIS demonstration project located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. A central facility, called the Traffic Information Center (TIC), was developed to receive and distribute traffic related information. The project is a joint effort of the Federal Highway Administration, the Illinois Department of Transportation, the Illinois Universities Transportation Research Consortium (composed of the University at Chicago and Northwestern University), Motorola and the American Automobile Association. De Leuw, Cather & Company is responsible for system engineering, system integration, and assisting in project management. The major emphasis of ADVANCE has been the development of the Traffic Information Center and development of an in-vehicle navigation system in which vehicles would also be used as probes. The completion of the in-vehicle navigation phase presented an opportunity to apply the lessons learned in developing the TIC to the creation of a Corridor Transportation Information Center (C-TIC). Specifically, this involved reuse of the hardware and software used for ADVANCE in the in-vehicle navigation tests and the connections that were established to a wide variety of external sources. This paper will cover the evolution of the C-TIC as a center for collecting and distributing information. The C-TIC results from recommendations based on the Gary-Chicago-Milwaukee (GCM) Priority Corridor Plan. This plan recommended a center to distribute information among the various freeway management control centers in Milwaukee, Chicago and Indiana as well as with other private and public providers and users of transportation related data. This data includes real time information ranging from roadway travel times to roadway incidents to weather conditions to transit information. The C-TIC began with congestion information for Chicago area expressways available on the Internet and will add information from Wisconsin and Indiana expressways and Illinois tollways in 1997. Information on incidents on all major arterials will also be provided through automated connections with emergency service dispatch facilities. Transit information will be integrated in 1998 and 1999. In addition, now that the C-TIC has been proven as a successful entity, work is now underway on taking the lessons learned in developing the TIC and the C-TIC and applying them to the development of the GCM Gateway Transportation Information Center, the permanent version of the C-TIC.
