• Description:
  IMPLAN serves as a software tool for assisting in the development of an Incident Management Plan. IMPLAN targets traffic engineers and planners responsible in their region for formulating and implementing incident management plans. IMPLAN represents a shell for an incident management plan. By inserting site specific information, a user can develop a plan tailored for his or her own area. In some cases, the “user” may be a Task Force or Working Group assembled to promote improved incident management in a region. In this case, the tool can serve as a catalyst to resolve issues among the participating agencies. Exercise of the tool can become an early “product” for the group. Development of the IMPLAN software package was supported by the Michigan Department of Transportation as part of the Metro Detroit Early Deployment Project. This project was funded in part by the Federal Highway Administration. Rockwell International was prime contractor. Dunn Engineering Associates, subcontractor, developed the IMPLAN software while Hubbell, Roth and Clark, subcontractor, assisted in generating the site-specific information. Volume I, the I-75 Corridor Incident Enhanced Management Plan, results from exercising the shell for the I-75 Corridor between I-94 and Adams. This document, Volume II, User’s Guide, explains how to use the program to develop an Incident Management Plan.
