Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) hold much promise for coordinating traffic management with other important incident management tasks in a way that is more efficient and provides greater benefits to the public as well as to the various stakeholders. Numerous breakthrough technologies and rapidly decreasing technology costs are making this possible. A major barrier to project success, however, is the stakeholder process required for multi-agency, multi-jurisdictional projects. An unprecedented level of cooperation and coordination is required from traffic departments, first and second responders, law enforcement agencies, commercial private sector organizations, and other government and non-profit agencies. This project developed and conducted a quantitative survey of stakeholder relations in the deployment of integrated traffic management and emergency response systems. The purpose was two-fold: (1) to develop generalized metrics of stakeholder perceptions and relationships and (2) to calibrate important success factors of integrated programs. |
