Abstract:The purpose of the study is to document and assess the performance of the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) advanced traffic management system (ATMS) and advanced traveler information system (ATIS) during the 2002 Winter Olympic Games. An additional purpose is to document and assess the results of the Travel Demand Management (TDM) program created and implemented for the Games. This study did not examine the advanced public transportation systems (APTS) operating during the Games, except where they interfaced with the ATMS. The study methodology encompassed both subjective and objective techniques. The wide array of data-collection activities, included the following: 1) Observations in the TOC by the Study Team for 5-8 hours each day of the Games; 2) Collection of a variety of traffic data, primarily using UDOT monitoring systems; 3) Independent observation and testing of the CommuterLink Website and 511 service; 4) Surveys of SLC residents (by telephone) and visitors (interviews at venues); 5) Follow-up interviews with UDOT and other agency staff; and, 6) Monitoring of news coverage regarding the ATMS and ATIS elements
