The future of the transportation and traffic control systems will be greatly impacted by the implementation of modern computer and communication technologies. Development of advanced communication systems will allow travelers to utilize information for decision making ranging from dynamic route selection to advanced parking reservation and dynamic speed control. With this ability to influence travelers with valuable information, it should be possible to improve traffic management and control system performance to reduce congestion, shorten travel times and improve fuel consumption and air quality. It is expected that the Intelligent Vehicle Highway System (IVHS) program being proposed and implemented by transportation agencies, practicers and researchers will both need better real-time traffic control and management methods and allow the implementation and effectuation of better real-time traffic control. This paper presents the structure of an integrated IVHS-ATMS system design concept called RHODES. The principal purpose of RHODES is to perform the real-time traffic-adaptive signal control utilizing the information that will be available within IVHS.
