Abstract
This thesis aims to study the feasibility of
applying Intelligent Transportation Systems
(ITS) in truck movement in Egypt where
Weigh in Motion applications (WIM) have
been studied. The feasibility of using WIM
systems with and without Automatic Vehicle
Identification (AVI) was analyzed at eleven
weighing stations in Egypt. The benefits
accrued from applying WIM systems and
the system cost have been determined at
each station. The Benefit to Cost (B/C)
ratio, Net Present Value (NPV), and Internal
Rate of Return (IRR) have also been
determined. Moreover, a network-wide
study has been implemented on the Egyptian
network and for both cases –with/without
AVI – based on the results of the eleven
studied stations. In addition, a Sensitivity
Analysis has been conducted for one of the
weighing station for 16 cases. WIM systems
in Egypt is proven to be feasible whether
aided with AVI systems or not.
