Abstract:The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) initiated a study to explore the benefits and costs of fully deploying operational strategies and integrating ITS in metropolitan areas. The goal of this effort is to provide transportation professionals and decision makers with a better understanding of the potential benefits of implementing the full suite of available operations and ITS strategies in a metropolitan area. The U.S. DOT and FHWA selected Tucson, Cincinnati, and Seattle for case studies representing small, medium, and large metropolitan areas, respectively. Scenarios were identified comprising complete operations and ITS deployment at an appropriate, logical scale for each area. These scenarios were then evaluated to estimate the regionwide benefits and costs. This report presents the findings of the Tucson, Arizona scenario.
