摘要：	This Concept of Operations (Con Ops) for the I-394 Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) Program has been developed as part of the Federal Highway Administration, the Federal Transit Administration, and RITA (FHWA/FTA/RITA) Integrated Corridor Management Initiative. I-394 serves as the core of a corridor that is critical to the movement of the over one million residents of Hennepin County. This corridor (commonly referred to as the I-394 Corridor) is served by a combination of three inter-related networks (a freeway network, a series of arterial highways, and a sophisticated transit system operated by three transit agencies). A driving tour of the corridor reveals a network of transit parking facilities, high occupant vehicle (HOV) bypasses; a freeway system that serves as the primary inbound/outbound access as well as serving to connect parallel access routes; and an arterial system that is coordinated and operates effectively and efficiently. In addition, innovations such as congestion pricing through High Occupancy Toll (HOT) lanes, shoulder access to buses, and reversible commuter lanes further add to the potential of the corridor. However, the three transportation networks lack integration and interoperability among each other. A systems engineering approach has examined the needs, defined a vision, and created a concept of operations for how an Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) system can unite the three networks of operations along the corridor to effectively manage traffic and inform travelers throughout the corridor.
