163 Inrix has been selected by the I-95 Corridor Coalition as one of their preferred providers of real-time traffic information. The majority of member states in the I-95 Corridor Coalition are continuing to use Inrix XD traffic information to help them streamline daily operations, pinpoint investments and deliver better traveller services.

The I-95 Corridor Coalition is an alliance of transportation agencies, toll authorities, and related organisations, including public safety, from the State of Maine to the State of Florida, with affiliate members in Canada.

Inrix will provide real-time and historical traffic information as well as incident information for more than 40,000 miles of roads, ramps and interchanges, continuing a collaboration started nearly seven years ago.

As part of its continued collaboration, Inrix services being offered to Coalition members have expanded to include:  the ability to cover more roads with greater precision, using Inrix XD traffic services; arterial quality, extending data quality commitments beyond freeways to major arterials delivering real-time traffic speeds accurate within 10 mph; actionable incident insight, using Inrix XD to correlate flow data with incident information to deliver better insight that includes queue length and location, traffic speed and overall delay time through the impacted area; and significantly improved pricing.

“Since the Coalition’s inception, we’ve successfully demonstrated time and again how technology can help transportation agencies do more with less,” said George Schoener, executive director of the I-95 Corridor Coalition. “We appreciate Inrix’s efforts, commitment and continued contributions to our success.”

“We have been working with the Coalition for many years, allowing us to demonstrate the quality and reliability of our data and its ability to enable a wide array of mission critical uses by state DOTs, metropolitan planning organisations and their partner agencies,” said Rick Schuman, Inrix’s vice president and general manager of public sector.

Inrix’s prediction that the cost of traffic congestion will rise by 63% to £21bn per year by 2030 clearly illustrates that, in addition to the ongoing inconvenience and inefficiency, ongoing gridlock is a significant drain on the economy.

The European Commission's (EC's) new Action Plan for the Deployment of Intelligent Transport Systems in Europe, which was announced as 2008 drew to a close, intends that transport and travel become 'cleaner; more efficient, including energy efficient; and safer and more secure'. At first sight, that wording might be interpreted as marking a significant policy shift within Europe, wit
