摘要: The objectives of this project are to investigate the causes of long clearance times of major traffic incidents, and identify and propose ways to reduce major incident clearance times. The research team (1) examined regional sources (or causes) of incident clearance delay, (2) identified appropriate responsive traffic incident management (TIM) tools and strategies—based on the state-of-the-practice and specific incident clearance delay characteristics in each region—shown to be successful in reducing incident clearance times, and (3) provided recommendations for improving ongoing performance measurement to support continuous improvement in safe, quick incident clearance. Information to support this research effort originated from various sources including detailed analyses of all major incidents in Caltrans Districts 3 and 4, TIM stakeholder workshops focused on regional TIM operations, literature and the state-of-the-practice reviews, TIM stakeholder surveys and inventories of practice focused on performance measurement.
