Abstract:Integration of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) within a metropolitan area is crucial for effective deployment. The Early Deployment Planning (EDP) Process is one tool that allows transportation officials to plan for and implement ITS technologies as part of an integrated transportation system. Congestion management systems (CMS), which are in place or under development in most major metropolitan areas, provide an important mechanism for establishing the linkage between the development of ITS products and services and the metropolitan planning process. These two activities will aid in the development of a regional framework, which defines a systems architecture and a planning and deployment process needed to support this integration. This report documents a study of the relationships among early deployment plans(EDPs), CMS, and regional frameworks. There were four principal objectives of the study: Report on the status of EDPs conducted in metropolitan areas throughout the U.S. Review the role of the EDP process in establishing a regional framework Report on the status of CMS development Review the relationship between the development processes for EDPs and CMS.
