Abstract:

The Federal Highway Administration as well as State and local agencies face the challenge of providing real-time travel time information to motorists in a manner that allows them to take full advantage of it. One factor contributing to the limited effects of current systems is that the travel time displays are not optimally located. The purpose of this project was to explore the best means of providing travel time information to drivers as they approach a freeway entrance and evaluate how this influenced route choice and diversion. The project consisted of two experimental tasks. The first task was a laboratory-based experiment in which participants were presented with scenarios and video of arterial travel time (ATT) displays and then were asked to provide ratings and to offer location recommendations. The second task was a field implementation over 11 weeks to investigate behavior, ratings, and use of both freeway and ATT information provided near a freeway entrance approach. Information was provided via a variable message sign and in-vehicle. A main outcome of both studies was a better understanding of optimal ways and preferred locations for presenting freeway and ATT information to commuters. Guidance and recommendations are provided.
