Abstract:The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Weather-Responsive Management Strategies (WRMS) initiative promotes the use of road weather data from mobile and connected vehicle technologies to support traffic and maintenance management strategies during inclement weather. The goal is to improve safety and reliability, and reduce environmental impacts on the transportation system resulting from adverse weather. The WRMS initiative helps mitigate the impacts of severe weather events through preparation activities that use existing data and tools and leverage State and local partnerships. By preparing for the impacts of severe weather events, State and local agencies are better positioned to support response and recovery efforts after an event. This case study highlights the experiences and lessons learned from the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (Louisiana DOTD), Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), and New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) while managing major flooding events resulting from Hurricane Ida. This case study provides insight into the new and existing tools and resources used as well as the relationships leveraged to prepare for and respond to Hurricane Ida in the summer of 2021.
