Abstract:

Northern Arizona has more than 6 million visitors per year. More than 2 million of these visitors will explore the World Wide Web to learn more about their destination prior to their trip. For this reason, the Federal Highway Administration, in partnership with the Arizona Department of Transportation (DOT), sponsored the development of the AZ TripUSA™ Rural Model Deployment Initiative (MDI)/Field Operation Test (FOT) in Northern Arizona along I-40. The result was TripUSA™ (developed by Castle Rock Consultants). This program is a public/private partnership created to improve traveler mobility, enhance economic development for the area, and enrich the overall experience of travelers. AZ TripUSA™ was successfully deployed during the first 6 months of 1998. TripUSA™ allows travelers who use the Internet to discover a wealth of information about their destination for use in trip and travel planning. Upon arriving at their destination, travelers can use interactive touch-screen kiosks to check road and weather conditions, find lodging and restaurants, and obtain directions to attractions.
