摘要：	Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) use advanced technologies to solve short-term and long-term transportation problems. The United States and other developed countries have embarked on a program of ITS. As expected, urban congestion received attention first, leading to the belief that ITS was not as applicable to rural areas. The states of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming realized that ITS is a viable solution to many rural area transportation problems, and thus have initiated the Greater Yellowstone Rural ITS Priority Corridor Project. A testbed for rural ITS applications, the Greater Yellowstone Rural Priority Corridor is a two-lane rural setting composed of three primary travel routes: (1) US Highway 191/20 from Bozeman, Montana to Idaho Falls, Idaho; (2) Interstate Highway 15 from Butte, Montana to Idaho Falls, Idaho including Interstate Highway 90 from Bozeman to Butte, Montana; and (3) US Highway 89/26 from Livingston, Montana through Jackson, Wyoming to Idaho Falls, Idaho including Interstate Highway 90 from Bozeman to Livingston, Montana. The Corridor routes represent vital transportation links for the economy and well being of the three-state area of Montana, Wyoming and Idaho. It also serves the recreational and resource needs of a growing national constituency seeking to utilize the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and Grand Teton Parks. The Corridor traverses a broad treasure of national resources. The national importance of the Corridor is further emphasized by its function as the connector for the trucking industry between the upper Midwest markets of Interstate 90 and the Intermountain and Southwest markets approachable by Interstate 15.
