Abstract:The I-25 Truck Safety Improvements project (I-25 TSIP) is the result of a FY98 congressionally designated earmark to support improvements in transportation efficiency, promote safety, increase traffic flow, reduce emissions, improve traveler information, enhance alternate transportation modes, promote tourism and build on existing Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). In spite of its name, the project was an all-encompassing statewide ITS deployment and integration package not limited to trucks and Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO); nor was it limited in scope to the I-25 corridor. With Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) concurrence, the project was initially divided into thirty (30) task orders to address ITS needs of the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) in areas ranging from planning through detailed design and implementation. Specific activities included deploying field devices such as Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) and Highway Advisory Radio (HAR); automation of various Colorado trucking Ports of Entry (POE); improvements to internal subsystems including the traveler information web site ("Co-Trip") and multi-modal database; developing and deploying communications systems; and information exchange between CDOT and other agency partners. All task orders undertaken were done to address one or more pressing needs.
