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.”
