TI02-Personalized Traveler Information

Status: Planned

Description

This service package provides tailored information in response to a traveler request. Both real–time interactive request/response systems and information systems that "push" a tailored stream of information to the traveler based on a submitted profile are supported. The traveler can obtain current information regarding traffic conditions, roadway maintenance and construction, transit services, ride share/ride match, parking management, detours and pricing information. Although the Internet is the predominate network used for traveler information dissemination, a range of two–way wide–area wireless and fixed–point to fixed–point communications systems may be used to support the required data communications with the traveler. A variety of interactive devices may be used by the traveler to access information prior to a trip or en route including phone via a 511–like portal and web pages via smart phone, tablet, personal computer, and a variety of in–vehicle devices.
