This project is being jointly conducted by researchers from the University of Iowa and the University of Minnesota, and will be carried out in two phases. Phase I involves a literature review, traffic data collection and development of a travel time database, and Phase II covers model development, calibration and evaluation. This report summarizes the findings of Phase I.enArterial highwaysAdvanced traveler information systemsLoop detectorsTravel timeTraffic engineeringReport
