Abstract:The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is placing an emphasis on Transportation System Management and Operations (TSMO) as ODOT strives to find innovative ways to fulfill the mission to enhance capacity and improve safety. The current critical success factors already reflect this emphasis by addressing Travel Time Performance. ODOT provides travel time information to the motoring public utilizing various technologies such as Dynamic Message Signs, Destination Dynamic Message Signs, and the OHGO platform. To date, these efforts have been focused on Ohio freeway routes. The overall goal of the project is to provide non-freeway motorists with accurate travel time information early enough that the driver has an opportunity to select the most efficient route. In Phase 1 of the project, the research team conducted an extensive literature search, state-of-the-practice review, agency interviews, and state traveler survey to understand the existing practice and corresponding effectiveness of providing travel time on non-freeway systems. Analysis of benefits and costs is applied to investigate the most cost-effective methods for data collection, travel time estimation and prediction, and information dissemination, to make recommendations to ODOT research and planning.
