73 Iteris has been awarded a US$2.6 million contract to implement the Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) project in Orange County, California in an effort to improve mobility in the heavily congested Platinum Triangle.

The Platinum Triangle confluence of corridors ranked as having the highest vehicle hours of delay in 2012, along with the highest concentration of special events at locations including Disneyland Resort and Theme Park, Angels Stadium, Honda Center and Anaheim Convention Center.

This initial ICM project will integrate freeway and arterial operations along the I-5, SR-55 and SR-91 freeways to improve mobility in Orange County. The project will also leverage system components planned for the I-210 Connector Corridor in Los Angeles, to which Iteris is a contributor. It is expected the project will establish a framework for future ICM projects in Orange County and the state.
