TRB’s Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Report 84: e-Transit: Electronic Business Strategies for Public Transportation Volume 6, Strategies to Expand and Improve Deployment of ITS in Rural Transit Systems examines Internet and communication technologies that are being deployed at rural transit agencies. The report provides information on statewide intelligent transportation systems (ITS) plans that include provisions for rural ITS initiatives.
The declining costs of communications, data storage, and data retrieval are accelerating the opportunities spawned by the Internet and other information and communications technologies. Choosing and sequencing investments in technologies, processes, and people to reduce costs and increase productivity present challenges to the transit manager, who must weigh the costs, benefits, and risks of changing the ways services are delivered. To assist in meeting such challenges, the TCRP Report 84: e-Transit: Electronic Business Strategies for Public Transportation series documents principles, techniques, and strategies that are used in electronic business for public transportation.
