• Abstract:
  The Trilogy project was an ITS demonstration of the broadcast of freeway system traveler information to both commercial and commuter drivers over a 25-mile (40.3 km) radius of the Twin Cities metropolitan area. In this project, real-time freeway system operating conditions, particularly incidents and traffic congestion, were monitored at the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) Traffic Management Center (TMC). This information was broadcast to a fleet of test vehicles with dashboard mounted display screens. The purpose of the test was to determine if real-time traveler information would influence individual travel decisions, determine the technical feasibility of the system, and access the usefulness of the information.
