Abstract
California's Department of Transportation (CALTRANS) is developing a plan to team with public and private organizations, domestic and foreign, to develop a Transportation Resources Information Processing System (TRIPS) which will permit urban, suburban and rural communities to use the public telephone network to better manage their local transportation resources. TRIPS will use computers and telecommunications to provide drivers, riders, and other local transportation decision-makers with better information about local travel alternatives, including new types of low-cost, door-to-door public transportation services. Preliminary research indicates that TRIPS could greatly increase the productivity of local transportation systems at a low cost to taxpayers.
