The overall objective of this Best Practices in Rural Transit Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) project was to identify operational best practices and related technology for applying ITS to rural transit. The project team assembled information gathered through case studies to produce the Best Practices recommendations. On-site case studies were performed at the following rural transit agencies: The Capital Area Rural Transportation System (CARTS) in Austin, TX; St. Johns County, Marion County, and Putnam County, FL (part of the statewide ITS demonstration project being conducted by the Florida Commission for the Transportation Disadvantaged (CTD)); The Public Transportation Programs Bureau (PTPB), a division of the New Mexico State Highway and Transportation Department. The application in New Mexico is being developed by the Alliance for Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) at the University of New Mexico; Ottumwa Transit Authority (OTA) in Ottumwa, IA; and River Valley Transit in Williamsport, PA.
