  3. Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) • Use ITS technologies to minimize urban congestion problems in South Florida. • Public partners are FDOT and MDX along with SmartRoute Systems as the ISP • Partners on the CIN Project include: Miami-Dade Transit, Broward County Transit, Palm Beach County Transit and South Florida Regional Transportation Authority

  4. What is CIN RTO? An integrated regional public transportation database and system. Incorporates routing, scheduling, fare information and transportation modality for Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Better enhances and coordinates public transportation for the consumer.

  5. The FDOT 511 and CIN Connection The CIN transit information system will be available through the 511 IVR as well through the FDOT Smart Traveler web site. Combining traffic and public transit information better facilitates the goals of both organizations and provides the consumer with centralized traffic and transit information.

  6. System Features A centralized database for Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties as well as the Tri-Rail commuter rail system. Regional and local trip planning by live operators using the INFO application. Complaints and Lost and Found information managed by live operators using the COM application. Regional and local trip planning by the consumer using a fully integrated web module. Stops and Fares available to the consumer via IVR.

  7. Integrated Data Integrated regional public transportation database that contains routes, schedules and fares for all four Transit organizations. Allows for sharing of data for regional trip planning and fares between the transit agencies. Provides the consumer with a centralized point to fully and accurately plan trips across counties.

  8. INFO Trip Planning Module Allows agents to schedule, trip plan and provide service policy inquiries. Includes features to ensure agents have the ability to replicate the way in which they search for and provide information to the riders without the assistance of computerized tools. Capitalizes on the data contained within the agency's computerized scheduling system to enable call takers to deliver accurate and useful information to riders in a time efficient manner.

Provides a means of recording, tracking, and responding to lost and/or found articles.

  14. IVR Integrated into the regional 511 Traffic System IVR Consumers can plan trips among the three counties participating in the CIN project . Provides stop locations and times as well as fare information and the ability to be transferred to a live operator at any of the regional transit agencies.
