Abstract:One of the most compelling reasons for investment in Intelligent Transportation System
(ITS) services is to realize a reduction in traffic congestion. Volume on America’s
highway network is expected to double by the year 2020 from 1.9 trillion vehicle miles
traveled to about 3.8 trillion miles. A recent National Cooperative Highway Research
Program study concluded that because of congestion, over 1.2 billion hours of traffic
delay were being experienced annually in 37 of the largest metropolitan areas in the
United States. The total cost in lost economic productivity due to all traffic congestion
has been estimated at roughly $100 billion annually.
