9 Integrated Institutional Integration Operational Integration Technical Integration Coordination to collaboration between various agencies and jurisdictions that transcends institutional boundaries. Multi-agency and cross-network operational strategies to manage the total capacity and demand of the corridor. Sharing and distribution of information, and system operations and control functions to support the immediate analysis and response. 7

10 Management ICM requires that the notion of managed corridors, and the active management of ALL individual facilities within the corridor, be considered. Passive Active 8

11 ICM Operational Approaches A. Information Sharing / Distribution B. Improve Operational Efficiency at Network Junctions C. Accommodate (Passive) / Promote (Active) Cross Network Route and Modal Shifts D. Modify Capacity, Short Term Demand Relationship Within Corridor (Short Term) E. Modify Capacity, Long Term Demand Relationship Within Corridor 9

13 Vinh Dang Freeway Operation Eng. ICM in Seattle area State of the Practice Lynn Peterson Secretary of Transportation John Nisbet Director of Traffic Operation. SSOM - ICM Webinar May 27, 2014

14 Background One of the 8 pioneer sites Funded through stage 1 - ConOps Partnership with City, County, Transit 7 miles initially 10 miles with more parallel routes and modes Partnership is not just sustained, but actually is growing

15 Challenges Unused capacity on arterial (sharp peak). Unstable freeway flow (flat peak). Impact of major incidents & events. Consistent presentation of traveler information. Planned closures, and major construction. Coordination and integration between stakeholders.

16 Objectives Corridor perspective goal Major partners shared this goal at the grass root level history of working together, sharing control and resources. Strengthen and expand this perspective out to more local agencies and new partners. Facilitate formation or new ICM corridor in the State, or extend the existing corridor in the Region.

17 Objectives Mobility/Reliability goal Improve travel predictability. Maximize the efficient use of any spare corridor capacity. Facilitate route shifts and mode shifts. Improve transit speed and reliability. Increase and retain mass transit ridership. Improve commercial vehicle operations through and around the corridor.

18 Operational strategies - Corridor Route shift at strategic interchanges Mode shift at regional Park and Ride and major parking Commuter rail line Light rail / Regional bus

19 Tactical manage demand /capacity Ramp metering to manage demand Speed transition preserves smooth flow Lane control prepares navigation maneuvers Peak shift W Seattle Br - NB Onramp 0:00:00 1:15:00 2:30:00 3:45:00 5:00:00 6:15:00 7:30:00 8:45:00 10:00:00 11:15:00 12:30:00 13:45:00 15:00:00 16:15:00 17:30:00 18:45:00 20:00:00 21:15:00 22:30:00 23:45:00 10/27/2011 Average

20 Tactical VMS for route choice Up to 100% ramp volume increase

21 Tactical Parking for mode choice Expanded parking at the Tukwila Commuter rail station. Parking pilot projects: - permit parking at P&R - real-time parking availability Reduced parking cost at SeaTac on game day Increase light rail service during event day

22 Other potential corridor in the Region Green River Valley corridor - HOT lane - Good parallel routes - Major train stations - Freight distribution center in Kent Everett-Seattle - Good transit on SR 99 - Multiple jurisdictions Actively involve in the RTOC to build on the grass root perpective

29 Loop 101 Characteristics CHALLENGES Agency notifications Some diversion routes are a challenge Three distinct zones Different routes and options UNIQUE ASPECTS Commuter corridor Arterial ITS infrastructure TMC/TOC operations expertise Signal operations Traveler information Provide travelers with specific alternate routes

30 L101 ICM Plan -Strategies

31 ICM Plan Performance Measures Agency notification time dispatch/dispatch and dispatch/tmc; Incident measures (time to respond, duration, clearance off of roadway, recovery [time to return to normal traffic conditions]); Primary and secondary crashes; Local traffic signal measures (number of signal timing changes, time that signals are in adjusted timing plans); Travel times (on freeways and arterials); Traffic throughput; REACT measures (number of call-outs, response time, clearance time, DMS messages posted); FSP/ALERT measures (similar to REACT); Number of media initiated contacts (social media posts, press releases, newscasts via radio/tv, distributions); System usage (VDS access, 511 phone/web, CAD entries, HCRS/RADS) Joint operations activities (number of times local agency used another agency s camera, DPS used ADOT s cameras); After action, meetings after every major closure; Emissions and fuel consumption; and Public response. 9

49 Travel Demand Regional Significance of Corridor The Salt Lake County section of I-15 Corridor is and will be the most congested corridor in the state Mode Daily 2040 Trips % of Total I ,000 54% Arterials 204,000 35% Rail (LRT and RCR) 61,000 10% BRT 4,000 1% Total 518,000

50 Regional Significance of Corridor, Continued Economy Primary freight network Southern California and Nevada link to I-80 Logistics route linking most population and commercial centers in Utah CANAMEX Corridor In rural Utah, I-15 averages between Class 8 trucks/hour. In the urbanized area, I-15 averages Class 8 trucks/hour. Over 60% of long-haul trucks using I-15 south of Salt Lake City are connecting to or from I-80 east of Utah.
