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.

Halfway into the project, which uses variably priced, or dynamic, tolling to improve highway efficiency, the benefits are mounting. The problem was obvious, and frustrating, to anyone who ever sat in bumper-to-bumper traffic on State Route 167 and watched a lone car whiz by every 20 seconds or so in the carpool lane. But for planners at the Washington State Department of Transportation, the conundrum was

    Bob Lees, co-founder of Diamond Consulting Services, on why the loop detector just refuses to go away. The more strident proponents of newer and emergent detection technologies are quick to highlight what they see as the disadvantages, and hence the imminent passing, of the humble inductive loop. The more prosaic will acknowledge that loops continue to have a part to play in traffic management, falling back on the assertion that it is all a question of application. And yet year after year the loop, despite

    Sluggish peak-hour traffic on Melbourne's busiest road, the Monash Freeway, will flow about 20 km/h faster when new technology is introduced, thanks to a US$78.2 million cash injection from the Australian Government to help improve traffic flow, with the money to go towards installing and upgrading intelligent transport systems on a 34.5-kilometre stretch of the road in Melbourne's east. The commitment is intended to be matched by the Victorian government and will go towards technology such as variable spee

Newark is a sleepy university town of roughly 30,000 residents abutting the state’s western border with Maryland and Pennsylvania, and often gets confused with its larger namesake in New Jersey.
