Abstract

In early 2002, the Iowa Department of Transportation engaged a consultant to help develop a statewide transit ITS plan. Iowa DOT intended to provide a means for transit agencies in the state’s rural and small urban communities to utilize Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) applications to support and enhance transit operations. Although several of the state’s transit agencies have implemented ITS applications, most agencies continue to rely on manual procedures for operations, management, and customer service functions.
