Series: ; 1895Publication details: Transportation research record, 2004Description: s. 170-81Subject(s): Bibl.nr: VTI P8167:1895; VTI P8169:2004Location: Abstract: A research project was conducted that sought to understand the transportation needs within California national parks by looking at two case study parks: Golden Gate National Recreation Area and Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. After transportation needs for these parks were identified through outreach meetings and visitor surveys, potential intelligent transportation system (ITS) solutions or themes were recommended along with how to follow national guidelines for planning and implementing these themes and solutions. This study also includes solutions and themes that were not identified for the two case study parks but that show promise for other California parks. The goal of this project is to help managers of any park in California to identify and implement ITS solutions and themes that can help to address their park's specific transportation needs.| Cover image | Item type | Current library | Home library | Collection | Shelving location | Call number | Materials specified | Vol info | URL | Copy number | Status | Notes | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | Item hold queue priority | Course reserves | |
