摘要: |
The Traffic Management Centers (TMCs) in Texas play a vital role in managing traffic operations in many of major metropolitan areas. TMCs have deployed extensive detection, monitoring, and communication infrastructure to allow TxDOT operators to manage incidents and reduce collisions; provide traveler information through roadside assets; provide traffic status to broadcast media; and support work zone monitoring and construction information. Currently there is no cross-border TMC or traveler data exchange along the Texas/Mexico border to inform the traveling public of the traffic conditions on the other side of the border, so travelers do not have information on traveling conditions between border sister-cities. Researchers evaluated the current state of the practice and future plans in Mexico to advance intelligent transportation systems, and developed a framework and an action plan for TxDOT to lead the deployment of cross-border TMCs and share data to improve the traffic conditions along the Texas/Mexico border and adjacent border cities. |
