Abstract:DRAFT is stamped at top of page. First paragraph from document: The following document contains the assumptions necessary to develop representative costs to deploy an Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure (ITI) across the United States. Some elements (i.e., surveillance, communication) do not lend themselves to a one-to-one correspondence with the nine intelligent transportation infrastructure areas but are listed under the most logical areas. To obtain the cost figures, information from systems in Texas, Virginia, Massachusetts, Washington, Georgia, Minnesota, Maryland, Delaware and California was gathered and discussions with experts in the area of traffic management systems were held. In the attached spreadsheet, the cost for deploying various ITS strategies nationwide is also estimated. The costs are a “worst case scenario” (unless otherwise noted) and reflect areas that are assumed to have no existing infrastructure. In this manner, areas with an existing infrastructure may scale back their costs accordingly. The general assumptions for each size (large, medium, and small) of metropolitan system follow.
