| Abstract | This document presents the plan for evaluating technologies known as Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) that will be implemented in Acadia National Park and Mount Desert Island, Maine. Acadia National Park was selected as a site for an ITS Field Operational Test (FOT) through collaboration of the U.S. Department of Interior and the U.S. Department of Transportation. As in Acadia, many National Parks are experiencing severe transportation problems, which frustrates their dual mission of preserving natural and cultural resources while providing visitors with a meaningful and pleasant experience. Intelligent Transportation Systems may help provide solutions to some of these problems. |
