The California Transportation Foundation (CTF) selected the San Diego Integrated Corridor Management System (ICMS) as Operational Efficiency Program of the Year in the 25th Annual CTF Transportation Awards. The awards recognise excellence in transportation - all modes, representing both the public and private sectors, from all California regions.

As the program’s systems integrator, 4089 Parsons installed its Intelligent NETworks product to help manage all facilities and modes along a 22-mile section of I15 that serves as the primary artery for California’s San Diego County. At the core of this system is an advanced decision support system (DSS) that recommends and activates response plans for different types of scheduled and unscheduled events that may occur along the freeway, managed lanes, or parallel arterials.

“We’re excited that our Intelligent NETworks product will help improve safety and travel reliability throughout the corridor,” said Todd Wager, Parsons Group president. “This is the first decision support system to integrate network traffic prediction and online micro simulation into a single advanced transportation management system.”

    Telegra tackle integrated corridor management
    Coordination is the key to successful integrated corridor management, argues Telegra’s chief operating officer, Branko Glad. The Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR) has calculated that in 2013, traffic congestion cost American citizens $124 billion ($78 billion of wasted time and fuel and $45 billion in indirect losses). In 2030 this figure is predicted to rise to $186 billion.

    Integrated corridor management aids multi-modal transport planning
    Telvent’s Jorgen Pedersen and Tip Franklin discuss how integrated corridor management can create synergies within a multimodal transportation infrastructure, while promoting modal shift. The mantra ‘We cannot build ourselves out of congestion’ has long been stated and too often ignored. But with the economy in dire straits, funding deficits and pressure to reduce governmental spending, this is now being taken seriously by almost everyone who has an interest in the flow of traffic. By ‘everyone’ we include
