Abstract
Route guidance system (RGS) is widely used as one of main measures of Intelligent Transportation System, which means to maintain an acceptable service level for mobility of persons and goods. But the traffic benefits brought by RGS vary a lot with the characteristics of road networks and traffic flow. Then how to evaluate the traffic benefits is of importance to its implementation. The paper analyzed traffic benefits of RGS. Evaluation Measures of Effectiveness (MOEs) of RGS and its definition models are put forward. An application of the research results is performed with TESS (Tongji transportation nEtwork Simulation System). Comparison of outputs from TESS and VISSIM is provided, which proved the validity of the research. The research is important for evaluation of RGS and integration of RGS and other traffic management and regulation measures.
