• Abstract:
  In October 1998, the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (Commission) submitted a Partnership Agreement to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for specific Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) activities, and to maximize the involvement of the Commonwealth and other project participants in the ITS program by the Transportation Equity Act of the 21st Century (TEA-21). Under this agreement for the Commissions Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS) Phase III project, the following goal was sought: Expand the Commissions statewide Advanced Traveler Information System to better inform motorists about traffic, weather and emergency conditions along the PA Turnpike through the use of highway advisory radio (HAR), variable message signs (VMS), closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras, roadway weather information systems (RWIS), vehicle rollover warning system, and traffic flow detection system (TFDS).
