Abstract

The DIATS project, funded under the European Fourth Framework programme, is assessing the `most-likely' deployment scenarios for inter- and peri-urban based, co-operative, Advanced Transport Telematics (ATT) systems. A "Delphi" study has confirmed investment plans for widespread implementation of Variable Message Signs, Variable Speed Limits, Ramp Metering and Automatic Incident Detection systems across Europe. In particular, DIATS is examining the effects of these 'fixed' infrastructure telematics applications in combination with new technologies such as Adaptive Cruise Control and roadside warning systems (such as COMPANION). This paper summarises the main results to date across the behaviour, safety and simulation workpackages and highlights some of the potential impacts of the project. For the covering abstract see IRRD E102946.
