• Abstract:
  This report presents the test plan for conducting the Decision Support System (DSS) Analysis for the ; United States Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) evaluation of the Dallas U.S. 75 Integrated ; Corridor Management (ICM) Initiative Demonstration. The ICM projects being deployed in Dallas ; include a suite of strategies aimed at balancing U.S. 75 corridor transportation supply and demand to ; promote overall corridor efficiency and safety. Operational strategies to be deployed in the Dallas ; U.S. 75 highway corridor include: simulations to predict travel conditions for improved incident ; response, interdependent response plans among agencies, traffic diversion to frontage roads and ; strategic arterials, traveler mode shift to the light rail system during major freeway incidents, and ; comparative travel time information to the public and operating agencies for freeway, HOV lanes, ; frontage roads, arterial streets, and light-rail transit lane. Technologies that will be used to carry out ; these strategies include a Decision Support System, a 511 traveler information system (telephone and ; website), a regional center-to-center information exchange network, dynamic message signs, parking ; management systems, transit signal priority and responsive traffic signals. This DSS Analysis Test Plan ; is based on the ICM Initiative Demonstration National Evaluation Framework. This test plan provides ; an overview of the DSS Analysis and describes the specific qualitative and quantitative data that will be ; collected to support the analysis. Data analysis methodologies as well as risks and mitigations ; associated with this evaluation analysis are also discussed in this test plan.
