Abstract:

Research indicates travelers want more timely and accurate information about road and weather conditions. They want detailed, location-specific forecasts and situation reports. They also need multiple ways of getting the information—radio and TV, conventional and cellular telephone, pager, and the Internet. New technologies can improve information systems, maintenance tools, and road weather management practices. This will help transportation officials reduce weather-related costs, provide more accurate and up-to-date information to the public, and decrease the number of weather-related traffic injuries and fatalities.
