Some Potential Applications
• Buses as probes for traffic conditions• Applications to PMs along urban arterials, collector streets
and freeway sections (wherever there are buses running on regular routes)
• Complement Bluetooth, cell phone, and stationary sensor collection systems
• Compare before and after conditions (e.g. changes in roadway design or signal timing, additional crosswalks)
