Abstract

An experimental advanced traveler-information system (ATIS), known as the Yosemite Area Traveler Information (YATI) System, is being implemented in hopes of improving traffic conditions in the region. Yosemite region travelers will be provided with real-time information regarding current weather and travel conditions, as well as the status of lodging, public transit, and recreational and camping facilities. The information will be provided via changeable-message signs (CMS), highway advisory radio (HAR) and a multimedia database accessible through information kiosks, computer bulletin boards, and touch-tone telephone. The results of data collected in the Yosemite region during the 1994 Memorial Day Weekend are presented in this paper.
