Abstract:

This Innovations Deserving Exploratory Analysis (IDEA) project tested a personal receiver (pager) and transit broadcast software system that would provide a working broadcast data stream and deliver real time-to-arrival information to transit passengers. A real-time broadcast software operation was examined, and the functionality and effectiveness of a working transit route information system was estimated by performing comparative customer service evaluations using selected groups of transit users and nonusers.
