Abstract

This leaflet is one of a series of documents from the ITS Assist Project. ITS Assist is a Department for Transport (DfT) initiative that aims to encourage and promote across the UK the use of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) as tools to implement local transport policy objectives. The leaflet provides a brief overview of Traffic and Traveller Information (TTI) services, their components and the benefits that can be achieved by their deployment. TTI services are designed to provide travellers (both in-vehicle, on foot or on public transport) with journey planning and en route information. A typical TTI service will encompass information gathering, processing, delivery and display technologies. It is probable that the services will be integrated with other technologies e.g. in-vehicle navigation systems. As public transport information is covered in another leaflet, this leaflet concentrates on TTI services for drivers. (Author/publisher)
