OMAHA METROPOLITAN AREA ITS EARLY DEPLOYMENT STUDY

A strategic plan for the deployment of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) in the Omaha metropolitan area was completed in December 1995. The ITS strategic deployment plan identifies 79 projects for implementation over the next 20 years. These projects are expected to provide approximately $900 million in road user cost savings at an estimated total cost of $157 million. The projects include the implementation of traffic control, surveillance, and traveler information systems and an area-wide traffic management and information center. A system architecture and communications master plan to support the deployment of the ITS technologies are presented in the plan. The plan also identifies project priorities, funding sources, and public/private partnership opportunities. An overview of the plan is presented in this paper.
