Overview
Background & policy context:
Mobile, independent sets for individual travel and transport information (TTI) are becoming more and more important. The production of personal digital assistants and mobile phones is increasing as new technologies will enter the market. However, we don't yet have a high quality supply of intermodal TTI offered by different service providers. Official departments of the confederation and the towns realize the possibilities of dynamic intermodal traffic management and its needs.
Objectives:
The project has following objectives:
- to provide an analysis of different traffic user groups and their needs and behaviour
- to provide a judgement of the PDA/PTA technologies, systems and the market
- to estimate effects on the traffic situation.
