Abstract:This flyer describes how Traffic Management Centers (TMC) can integrate weather information into their daily operations, and is based on the Road Weather Management Program publication, Self-Evaluation and Planning Guide (FHWA-JPO-08-057). The Guide can help TMCs identify the major weather events that affect operations; assess critical weather impacts in their jurisdiction; and identify existing level of weather integration in the TMC. The Guide also provides information on prioritizing TMC operational needs for responding to weather events; implementing strategies for integrating weather information (ranging from basic to more sophisticated strategies and technologies) that best their operational needs; and gathering additional information to assist in developing a weather integration plan.
