  • Abstract:
    Three regional workshops were held in the southeastern United States (January 8-9, January 29-30, and February 27, 2002) to give representatives from transportation, law enforcement, and emergency response organizations the opportunity to exchange ideas on traffic operations during hurricane evacuations and recovery. In the past several years, Departments of Transportation in the southeastern states have increased their multi-state and multi-agency coordination in response to hurricanes. All southeastern states have used or are prepared to use some form of ITS to support evacuations and recovery operations due to hurricanes. ITS network coverage is uneven throughout most states, with traffic management information available mainly from the metropolitan areas. Moreover, ITS investments are focusing more on multi-application uses, rather than single-use needs. Integration or sharing of traffic management/traffic volume data within and across agencies is increasing. This information is used to aid decision-making, anticipate resource needs, and enhance emergency response capabilities. The report contains a summary table of major transportation-related activities associated with hurricane evacuations and recovery by state
