Abstract

Currently, there is a revolution taking place in the provision of transport services, and it affects the production and design of vehicles, road traffic operating systems, information systems, and the operation and management strategies of firms. In the longer term, there are visions of the intelligent vehicle and the automated highway. The basic premise underlying this telematics revolution is that through the use of technology, we can improve the efficiency, the environmental quality and the safety of our transport systems, and reduce the levels of congestion, without actually increasing the amount of physical road space available. It seems that this is a no loss situation as society, firms and individuals will all gain from the increased use of transport telematics.
