The goal of the study was to determine if a real-time travel information program could be established by forming a partnership between private citizens, private companies, and the public sector. The purpose was to provide timely information on the traffic conditions of the four roadways in the north corridor of Houston during peak period operation and to make this information available to the traveling public by way of radio reports (traffic service companies) and roadside changeable message signs. Motorists could then select a route that reduced their travel time.
