Fort Clatsop... The 2004 summer season was viewed as an opportunity to test the new systems and to evaluate initial operations. The National Park Service requested that the Volpe Center assist in an evaluation. The limited timeframe for the evaluation limited the scope of the analysis and required that its focus be confined to the following critical questions: (1) Should the ticket reservation system be continued? (2) How should the parking areas at Netul Landing and the site of the fort replica be operated? (3) Are adjustments to the intra-park shuttle service necessary? (4) What adjustments are needed to other transportation services, such as transit, that are provided to Netul? (5) How has the visitor experience, especially visitor spatial distribution and pace of the visit, been affected by the new systems?
