Abstract:

This report is one in a series that presents the results of data used to assess the impact of the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) that were part of a field operational test at Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island off the coast of Maine. ITS deployed at Acadia integrates various components that support the regions needs for transit management, traffic management, and traveler information. Data collected as part of normal operations by agencies within the State of Maine Government were used to assess the impact of ITS on four goal areas: productivity and economic vitality, efficiency energy and environment, and safety. Hypotheses were formulated in the four goal areas and tested with the data. Due to unavailability or other problems with some of the data, hypothesized impacts of ITS in three of the four goal areas could not be tested with the States data. The evaluation was able to examine the impact of ITS on energy and environment by using the States estimates of avoided emissions due to increases in passengers using transit rather than private vehicles. In that ITS encourages use of transit, the conclusion was that ITS appears to benefit the air quality of the region.
