The intent of this primer is to inform and guide traffic incident management (TIM) professionals and transportation planners to initiate and develop collaborative relationships and advance TIM programs through the metropolitan planning process. The primer aims to inspire planners and TIM professionals to create transportation plans and programs that support regional TIM programs through TIM-focused objectives, performance measures, and TIM strategies and projects. The ultimate goal of this primer is to strengthen, support, and elevate regional TIM programs as a crucial, lower-cost strategy for reliability, safety, environmental improvements, and mobility. The primer explains the benefits for TIM professionals and planners of linking planning and TIM. It contains specific opportunities, supported by case studies, to integrate TIM considerations and stakeholders into the planning process. TIM planning sheets provide tangible examples of TIM objectives that can be drawn from, in whole or in part, to develop metropolitan transportation plans or related operations or TIM-focused plans. |
