By: Contributor(s): Publication details: Bryssel ITS in daily life: 16th world congress and exhibition on intelligent transport systems and services, Stockholm 21-25 September 2009. Paper, 2009Description: 7 sSubject(s): Bibl.nr: VTI P1835:16 [World]Location: Abstract: Rejseplanen and the Danish Road Directorate (DRD) have initiated a cooperation to show car drivers that sometimes it is faster to use public transportation (PT) thereby shifting traffic from road to PT and to offer a better service to travelers. To show this, they are developing a comodal planner which covers PT, cars and Park & Ride. The suggested routes will be compared on travel time, costs and environmental impact. Car routes will use realistic travel times, also in rush hours. These were gathered by DRD through a probe car project using GPS. A prototype planner is currently running and the planner is expected to be in full operation by autumn 2009.
