Internet Rising As Preferred Traffic Info Source
Kostadinos G. Goulias, professor of civil engineering and environmental engineering, and director of Penn State’s Mid-Atlantic Universities Transportation Center, says, “Our results suggest that on-line travel information will become more important in the future as home Internet access increases, which could be significant for those planning evacuations or traffic diversions for homeland security.” Goulias detailed the study, conducted with two doctoral candidates, this week at the European Commission Workshop on Behavioral Responses to Intelligent Transportation Systems, in The Netherlands.
