Abstract:This report describes the DIRECT [Driver Information Radio using Experimental Communication Technologies] field test which was designed to evaluate the user benefits, institutional issues, and technical issues of en-route driver advisory and traveler information services. Focus was on testing and evaluating the voice-based communication systems that direct: 1) basic services at a minimal incremental cost to the traveler; and, 2) high potential for operational deployment. Four different systems were compared. They include: 1) Low Power Highway Advisory Radio (LPHAR), 2) Automatic Highway Advisory Radio (AHAR), 3) Cellular Telephone Call-in System, and 4) Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS). Using survey and interview data, the evaluations were conducting, using principal component analysis and regression analysis.
