Enhancement and Technical Support of Intelligent Roadway Information System (IRIS) in Caltrans Districts 1, 2, 5 and 10

This research presents an overview of the design and function of the Intelligent Roadway Information System (IRIS). IRIS provides Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) capabilities to the California Department of Transportation’s (Caltrans) rural Districts 1, 2, 5, and 10. Most ATMS programs are not suited to rural areas and IRIS presents a low-cost alternative that provides significant operational capabilities to rural districts. IRIS was developed by the Minnesota Department of Transportation and Caltrans has submitted functional enhancements to be integrated into the official code. Full deployment to each rural district has been successful with a reduction in the number of traffic management software applications and servers in those districts.
