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.

    Collecting speed and travel time data without using roadside infrastructure could offer new possibilities to cash-strapped road authorities. Streaming video may be useful for traffic controllers to monitor incidents and automatic number plate recognition may be required for enforcement, but neither are necessary for many ITS functions. For instance travel times, tailbacks, percentage of vehicles turning, origin and destination analysis can all be done using Bluetooth and/or WI-Fi sensors and without video o
