  • Abstract
    A study is presented of the effects of the Autoguide electronic route guidance system. The results, based on use of a conventional traffic assignment model are illustrative only, indicating the probable direction and scale of the effects. The general indication is that the use of Autoguide in London will offer traffic benefits which will be most substantial for vehicles equipped with an Autoguide unit, but there will also be benefits for non-equipped vehicles; there should be no adverse impacts.<>
