• Description:
  The overarching goal of the project is to enhance travel reliability of highway users by providing them with reliable route guidance produced from newly developed routing algorithms that are validated and implemented with real traffic data. To these ends, the project further develops the reliable routing algorithms, tests the idea of using the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) bus data to estimate travel times on arterial and local roads, and conducts a survey designed to understand travelers’ reaction and attitude to travel reliability and their opinions about reliable route guidance products.
