• Abstract:
  This document summarizes the background, development, and assessment of the prototype development phase of the Weather Response System (WRS). The document describes: ; The objectives and background to the development of the prototype WRS; ; The evolution of the prototype WRS, including changes that were made to the system as a result of use and/or reviews by Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), and National Weather Service (NWS) personnel; and ; The results of an operational assessment exercise conducted with MoDOT and FHWA personnel. ; The operational assessment exercise identified suggested changes and enhancements that could be made to the prototype WRS to increase its value as a traffic operations, maintenance operations, construction operations, and customer service tool. These recommendations could serve as the basis of a further design and development phase to the WRS.
