The role of Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS) Applications in rural environments has yet to be precisely defined. The Minnesota Rural IVHS Scoping Study is an attempt to clearly define the needs of travelers throughout rural Minnesota in order to assess the potential for rural IVHS applications within the state. This project was performed in a series of five tasks. The remainder of this executive summary will focus on brief descriptions of each of the following tasks: description of rural Minnesota highway users; identification of rural traveler needs and potential strategies to meet these needs; review of available technologies; identification of key issues concerning each technology; and development of conceptual ideas for future projects. The initial stage of this project involved an assessment and description of rural Minnesota transportation users. This review served to draw a complete picture of the rural Minnesota highway environment including the identification of rural highway users, their numbers, and their reasons for travel. In order to facilitate the subsequent task of identifying the needs of rural highway users, descriptions of rural Minnesota roadways, rural travel problems and rural Minnesota highway users were developed. Additionally, a review of all current IVHS projects which potentially relate to rural applications, was conducted to assist the remaining stages of this project.
