Strategic Deployment Plan - sacog

interchanges and interchanges between interstate routes and major state routes.
• Smart Call Box Systems
• Portable CMS Pool ­ pool of portable changeable message signs that would be made available to various
public agencies for use in construction work zones, special event traffic control and other appropriate
incident management applications.
• Dynamic Alternate Route signing system ­ implement dynamic variable message signs (VMS) specifically
sited, and primarily devoted, to detouring traffic onto alternate routes during incidents, including accidents
and weather related road closures.
• Traffic Monitoring Phase I ­ Deploy traffic monitoring devices (e.g. flow detectors, CCTV cameras) along
segments of US 50 in South Shore area, and along Highways 28, 89 and 267 in the North Shore
Objectives Being Met
• Market ITS to encourage the use of multi­modal transportation system
• Reduce time residents spend in congestion
• Optimize operations (reduce congestion, improve the traveler experience)
• Reduce conflicts between motorized and non­motorized modes and vehicles
• Provide more predictable travel times
• Consider addition of HOV/HOT lanes across region
• Improve access into and out of economic centers
Performance Measures
• Traffic flow. Measured at on ramps and on highway.
