One Stop Shop (OSS) provides route-specific, real-time, highway-based traveler information. It aggregates a variety of real-time information (weather, incidents, construction, CCTV, CMS messages, etc.) into a single web-based application. This allows travelers planning a trip in or through rural areas to have current and predicted travel information in general and on a route-specific basis, customized for a specific origin and destination.

The current phase of OSS covers California, Oregon, Nevada and Washington. This phase was funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation Research and Innovative Technology Administration in conjunction with the Clarus Initiative. For further information, see: http://www.westernstates.org/Projects/OSS/Clarus/ and http://www.its.dot.gov/clarus/clarus_baa.htm.

OSS is based on previous research and development funded by The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and performed by the Western Transportation Institute (WTI) at Montana State University. For more information about related, prior projects, see:
