THE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT PROGRAM FOR NORTHEASTERN ILLINOIS

The Chicago Area Transportation Study (CATS) as the designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the northeastern Illinois region, has the responsibility of developing a Transportation Systems Management (TSM) element as part of the urban transportation planning process. The document represents the initial actions towards the development of a short-range plan designed to implement the objectives of improving system efficiency and maximizing system productivity. The document is composed of three parts: a history of effort on past and ongoing TSM projects in the region, an interim TSM program delineating projects in the FY 77 Annual Element of the Transportation Improvement Program, and documentation of the TSM processes, methodologies and elements as proposed during the coming fiscal year.
