摘要: |
The study considers how ITS planning can aid small urban areas in determining appropriate ITS solutions for their transportation networks. This was accomplished through a case study of the Charlottesville region. Based on the findings, a number of recommendations for how best to plan for ITS in small urban areas in Virginia and other areas were made. These include using the FHWA's ITS Planning Process, Version 2.1 for small urban area ITS studies and suggesting that VDOT incorporate the method in its planning for small urban areas. Other recommendations include using an additional market package screen for the ITS Planning Process and calling for the federal ITS program to fund planning studies in small U.S. urban areas. |
