AGENDA
• What is and why implement ITS
• The College Station plan
• Examples in action
![Page 3: ITS Master Plan](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/554ab5e9b4c905ec668b5a8b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Problem -
Our transportation infrastructure – highways and arterials, ports, and airways – are simply over used. Congestion has impacted every aspect of our daily lives.
![Page 4: ITS Master Plan](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/554ab5e9b4c905ec668b5a8b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Problem -• Congestion alone, accounts for over
$100 billion in lost productivity, wasted fuel, and environmental damage.

Fact -
The level of mobility on which we have come to depend can no longer be taken for granted

WHAT IS ITS?
![Page 7: ITS Master Plan](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/554ab5e9b4c905ec668b5a8b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What is ITS?• Intelligent Transportation System
(ITS) is:– Technology that is leveraged to :• collect important information• convey important information • share information
• ITS helps make informed decisions
• ITS improves transportation safety and mobility
• ITS enhances productivity
![Page 8: ITS Master Plan](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/554ab5e9b4c905ec668b5a8b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ITS
• ITS compliments traditional capacity building practices
• ITS compliments current initiatives for traffic management (Game Day)
• ITS is not a silver bullet. It cannot make congestion go away, it can help manage the problem
![Page 9: ITS Master Plan](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/554ab5e9b4c905ec668b5a8b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ITS MASTER PLAN BENEFITS
• Provides vision for ITS deployment in the City
• Describes how system components work together now and in the future
• Identifies opportunities for resource sharing

Establish Performance Monitoring Program
Identify performance measures and data sources
Construct Traffic Management Center
Identify the functions to be fulfilled from a central point of command and control
Identify location Identify funding Provide real-time information about incidents to fire and police
departments Evaluate traffic conditions in real-time
Establish Operational Strategies Review operations during special events Respond to incidents Support regional operations Monitor traffic signal operations in real-time.
Establish System Health Performance Monitoring

SYSTEM TOURS• Peer City Tours:
– Norman (OK) – Frisco– Garland– Arlington– Sugar Land
• Take Away:– Traffic management centers enhance communication and
management
– Staffed TMC during peak periods, special events, incident management
– Good communication network a must
– CCTV cameras are a significant benefit to managing traffic demand and roadway congestion (planned and unplanned)
– Share data with partners
![Page 14: ITS Master Plan](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/554ab5e9b4c905ec668b5a8b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
STATE OF THE PRACTICE
• Traffic signal controllers and cabinets
– City’s current cabinet architecture is based on a 1980’s era standard
– Decision to move to current standard
– Replace strategically over time
![Page 15: ITS Master Plan](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/554ab5e9b4c905ec668b5a8b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
STATE OF THE PRACTICE
• Traffic management software– Need a modern system to provide
command and control to all ITS devices– Based on proven success– Provide alerts, alarms, reports– Real-time information– Provide better management of the
complete system– Support BCSMI where possible/practical
