Abstract:This paper was written to provide basic information in advance of the “National Workshop to
Develop an Intelligent Transportation Systems Program Strategy for the National Park
Service,” June 19-20, 2001, to be held at the Central Federal Lands Highway Division Office
in Lakewood, Colorado. In the spirit of promoting robust workshop discussion, the paper
seeks to:
1) Acquaint National Park Service (NPS) staff with Intelligent Transportation Systems
(ITS) and ITS applications, and
2) Acquaint transportation community participants with NPS transportation-related
issues and concerns that might be amenable to ITS solutions.
The paper introduces NPS transportation issues and concerns; provides a brief overview of
relevant ITS technologies and applications; discusses the state of ITS within national parks;
identifies the potential benefits of ITS technologies; and lays the groundwork for discussion
regarding ITS strategies for the NPS by posing several questions to be addressed during the
workshop.
