On July 21, 2000, the Federal Communications Commission assigned the abbreviated dialing code 511 to be used for traveler information services. The basis for reserving 511 is that it meets the 'public interest' standard for such a determination, and that use of traveler information systems increase substantially when a three-digit number is available. This study describes the current state of traveler information services in Virginia and the Washington, DC area, as well as describing the process for adopting an N11 in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia. In addition, potential challenges to overcome before implementation are discussed. |
