Abstract:

In a previous project (AZ-485), Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) embarked on an effort that provided statewide detour plans for major links of Arizona roadways in print format. That project resulted in a thick binder of letter-size closure/detour descriptions. That resource was clearly limited in its functionality as well as by its bulk. Yet the effort was remarkable in that it yielded specific and proactive detour plans on a statewide basis--thanks to the close cooperation of ADOT and the Department of Public Safety (DPS). This second phase of the solution to the closure/detour problem was launched in April 2001 with the focus on enhancing the accumulated detour plans by providing a user-friendly computer application. This new resource would be called ARIS, the Alternate Routing Information System. It would be supported by a map interface, supplemental roadway network data, the capability of generating new ad hoc closure/detour combinations, and presentation of the library of earlier approved detour plans. This phase is markedly different in that it attempts to put interactive detour generation capability on the desktops of at least 40 potential users. This research effort presents the effects of several strategies for computer application design and delivery. The focus group initially included personnel in ADOT maintenance districts and DPS field offices as the end-users. Many in this audience, however, are not comfortable with computerized tools. The intended application of the ARIS tool does not require that it be routinely or consistently used by only one technician. Therefore the ease of user interface, and the minimization of required training, became prime objectives for the research.
