INFORMATION ELEMENTS TO SUPPORT TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SERVICES : FINAL SUMMARY REPORT
Public Agencies responsible for managing various operational aspects of the highway system require numerous types of information on the current conditions of the system to support delivery of effective services. Real-time information on highway system performance and weather conditions / events is vital to assist highway professionals in managing the available capacity, responding to disruptions to capacity (including emergencies, evacuations, and security threats) and to system users in planning the timing, mode, and route for their trips. This document presents the summary of an effort undertaken to develop information requirements and cost estimates requirements to support various traffic management services. The intent is to document the effort by describing the tasks undertaken, assumptions and agreements, describe the processes used, and itemize the findings so that future users of the materials understand its context
