Performance Measures
Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSM&O)
TIM consists of a planned and coordinated multi-disciplinary process to
detect, respond to, and clear traffic incidents so that traffic flow may be
restored as safely and quickly as possible.
Effective TIM reduces the duration and impacts of traffic incidents and
improves the safety of motorists, crash victims and emergency
responders. [2]
Why TIM?

Why TIM Teams?
Can be an excellent tool for enhancing Coordination, Communications and
Cooperation between various agencies within a local jurisdiction.
