AN APPLICATION OF ITS TECHNOLOGY FOR CONGESTION MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
A field demonstration project was organized and conducted to evaluate the feasibility of an advanced technology application in the automation of traffic performance data gathering. Additionally, the field demonstration was coordinated with the Hillsborough County Metropolitan Planning Organization in order to identify and investigate a data collection automation application that is compatible with traffic performance measures needed specifically for the Hillsborough County Congestion Management Systems (CMS). The MPO, besides providing feedback on the structure and parameters for the field demonstration, also provided a small portion of planning funds to support the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR), University of South Florida, in the data collection and analysis phase of the project.
