Phase two of the project follows the successful deployment of pilot systems created through Iteris' investment in Advanced Traveler Information Systems. It will provide access to real-time traffic information, such as congestion levels, speeds, incidents and cameras through the Internet, as well as automated voice reporting and community access television.
With personalized ATIS services, Iteris will also allow users to register their own routes and offer updates on traffic conditions via e-mail.
“Opportunities to build highway capacity or create viable transit options are limited," adds Gail Farber, director of the L.A. County Department of Public Works. "Therefore, providing clear and consistent information of travel time is not only a smart business practice, it is mission critical.”
