• Abstract:
  The general objective of this study was to correlate the local air quality to events on the Borman and determine the overall effect of the ITS on the local air quality. An “event” on the Borman is defined as anything that impairs traffic conditions on the Expressway. Construction delays, lane restrictions, accidents, weather, and excessive demand are all capable of creating congestion and impairing the utility of the expressway.
