Abstract:This report presents the test plan for conducting the Corridor Performance Analysis for the United States
Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) evaluation of the San Diego Integrated Corridor Management
(ICM) Initiative Demonstration. The ICM projects being deployed in San Diego include a suite of
strategies aimed at balancing corridor transportation supply and demand to promote overall corridor
efficiency and safety. Operational strategies to be deployed in the San Diego I-15 highway corridor
include: simulations to predict travel conditions for improved incident response, interdependent
response plans among agencies, traffic diversion to strategic arterials, traveler mode shift to the bus
rapid transit (BRT) system during major freeway incidents, and comparative travel time information to
the public and operating agencies for freeway, HOT lanes, arterial streets, and BRT. 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, adaptive ramp metering, and responsive traffic signals. This Corridor Performance
Analysis Test Plan is based on the ICM Initiative Demonstration National Evaluation Framework.
This test plan provides an overview of the Corridor Performance 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.
