Abstract:This application was identified as a promising rural Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) solution under a project sponsored by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the ENTERPRISE program. This summary describes the solution as well as opportunities for expansion into the broader context of rural ITS. Numerous rural residents either do not drive or do not have access to vehicles and therefore rely on the mobility services offered by transit operations. This simple solution combines and coordinates the services of several local agencies to offer a more efficient and effective public transit service using the combined fleets of various operators.
