摘要: St. Paul is the eastern city of the St. Paul-Minneapolis "Twin Cities" metropolitan area of Minnesota. Two major freeways (I-94 and I-35E) come together in a common section in the vicinity of downtown St. Paul. This common section and the nearby freeway approaches have historically had high accident rates. The Minnesota Department of Transportation Office of Advanced Transportation Systems and the City of St. Paul have jointly developed and deployed an incident management project under the acronym DIVERT (During Incidents Vehicles Exit to Reduce Time). DIVERT was conceived to manage the effects of incidents on I-94 and I-35E. Prior to DIVERT freeway incidents would cause large queues and substantial vehicle delay. Also, any diversions that motorists attempted through the downtown St. Paul surface street network were unplanned, disorganized and inefficient. The goal of DIVERT is to provide management strategies during periods of freeway incidents by routing diverted traffic over City surface arterials in a planned, coordinated manner. The resulting service along the managed diversion routes will be higher than the service available by remaining on the freeway. For the covering abstract see IRRD E102946.
