Title: Final Focus Group Report: Traveler Behavior. FAST-TRAC Phase III Deliverable. No. 16A Final Focus Groups Report
Abstract: The FAST-TRAC (Faster and Safer Travel through Traffic Routing and Advanced Controls) Operational Field Test (OFT) is an Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) project being conducted in Southeast Michigan, largely within Oakland County. The project involves the deployment and testing of both an Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) and an Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS). The ATMS includes over 200 computer controlled traffic signals (SCATS) and new video image processing technology for vehicle detection (Autoscope). The ATIS is Ah-Scout route guidance which provides turn-by-turn directions to a destination selected by the driver. Guidance is communicated to the vehicle via roadside beacons that use infrared radiation to communicate with the vehicles.
