The 17 chapters in this book, which evolved from a conference on
measuring the contributions of ITS sponsored by the California
Department of Transportation in February 2002, examine the costs
and benefits of ITS in an economic and business policy context.
Section 1 examines the broad theme of how and what ITS contributes
to the economy and how one makes a business case for ITS. Section 2
includes three chapters on ITS applications in mass transit.
Section 3 explores ITS applications in the automobile/highway
system. Section 4 considers integrative issues including how ITS is
perceived and how it can be positioned to improve surface
transportation.
This volume will be especially useful to researchers and policy
makers working in transportation, transportation engineering, and
the economic analysis of transportation systems.
