Abstract:

This report documents an effort to assess whether integrated multimodal real-time traveler information can encourage travelers to consider transit as a more viable choice. Under the sponsorship of the California Department of Transportation and in partnership with the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority, California PATH developed and field tested Trip2go -- a suite of web-based and mobile-phone-based applications incorporating real-time transit and highway condition information. Both objective and surveys were collected to support statistical and modeling analyses to evaluate the effectiveness of real-time information in making choice decisions. The evaluation results show that travelers can be influenced by real-time travel information for both mode and time shifts, particularly for no-commuter trips. The mode and time shifts can potentially relieve traffic congestion, reduce fuel consumption and lower tailpipe emissions.
