Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (U.S.)Science Applications International CorporationIntelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office;Volpe National Transportation Systems Center, Technical Reference Center;Federal Highway AdministrationThis operational test case study is one of six performed in response to a Volpe National Transportation Systems Center technical task directive (TTD) to Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) entitled, "IVHS Institutional Issues and Case Studies". ADVANCE, Advantage I-75, HELP/Crescent, TRANSCOM/TRANSMIT, TravTek, and Westchester Commuter Central were the subjects of the six case studies. The case studies were performed to determine (1) institutional issues and legal impediments encountered during the establishment of partnerships and deployment of IVHS services and products during the operational test, (2) the point in the life cycle of the operational test at which the impediments occurred, (3) how project partners and participants overcame impediments, and (4) lessons that were learned that are applicable to future deployments of IVHS products and services. This case study also describes the operational test and documents its history. Interviews for this case study were conducted during the summer of 1993
