Abstract:The Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) uses dynamic message signs
(DMS) for traffic and incident management and for providing travel time information.
Previous research in Maryland has shown that a DMS can be an accurate, effective, and
safe device to convey real-time traffic information to drivers and that it can be an
effective traffic management strategy. However, little research has been done to
understand how drivers in Maryland react to posted messages and to what extent they
choose travel routes based on the information provided.
