A new edition of the standard used by the traffic management industry, NTCIP 1103 v03 Transportation Management Protocols (TMP), has been jointly published by the 7174 National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), the 4944 American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and the 5667 Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE).

The revised TMP standard includes ‘traps’ functionality, which allows a user to specify conditions under which reporting might occur on an immediate or expedited basis. NTCIP’s interoperable design allows traffic managers who are implementing other NTCIP standards to use the traps published in NTCIP 1103 v03.

And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne

    US ushers in reforms with new transportation bill
    On behalf of ITS America, Paul Feenstra maps out implications and opportunities for the ITS industry. A critical milestone was reached last month when the US Congress passed, and President Obama signed, legislation reauthorising the nation’s surface transportation programmes, breaking a nearly three-year log-jam which had stymied critical transportation reforms and delayed much-needed infrastructure projects. The law, numbered P.L. 112-141 but known as MAP-21 (Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century),

    After six years of intensive research, testing and negotiation, the US tolling industry is well on its way to groundbreaking results in the effort to establish regional - and eventually national - toll interoperability, says IBTTA’s Bill Cramer. Interoperability has been a high priority on the US tolling industry’s agenda for more than a decade. But several factors made it a uniquely complex issue to resolve - including the number of agencies involved, the significant investments those agencies had already
