What is TRIP? • An ODOT program that will reward an incentive to prequalified towing and recovery companies for the timely removal of large vehicle incidents from ODOT roadway. • The first pilot program has begun in the Central Ohio Area. • Rusty’s Towing, Eitel’s Towing, Eastland Towing, and ProTow have all been prequalified to participate. • Future expansion to Cleveland and Cincinnati
What Qualifies as a TRIP? • A TRIP call may be initiated under the following conditions: • A crash involving a DOT Class 7 or 8 Heavy Dutyvehicle that blocks or otherwise affects the traveled lanes • Rollover, jack-knifed, or otherwise not drivable • Lost or shifted load • Truck fire w/ tires burned off • Major impact with guard rail, bridge support, or structure • A crash involving a DOT Class 5 or 6 vehicle that blocks or otherwise affects the travelled lanes • Rollover, jack-knifed. Or otherwise not drivable • Fire w/tires burned off • Major impact with guard rail, bridge support. Or structure • As allowed by an ODOT TMC Supervisor
Program Boundaries • The pilot program shall cover I-270, all interstates inside the perimeter, all of SR-315 within the boundaries of I-270, all interchange ramps, and the following boundaries outside the perimeter: • I-71 (Northside): to US-36/SR-37, Exit 131 • I-71 (Southside): to SR-665/London Groveport Road, Exit 97 • I-70 (Westside): to Hilliard-Rome Road, Exit 91A • I-70 (Eastside): to SR-256, Exit 112 • US-33 (Southeast): to SR-317/Hamilton Road • US-33 (Northwest): to SR-161/Post Road • SR-161 (Northeast): to US-62/E Johnstown Road
How to Initiate a TRIP Call • ODOT Statewide TMC will be the point of contact for TRIP. • TMC may be notified of a potential TRIP situation by ODOT, FSP, law enforcement, and/or fire/emergency. • If there is an agreement that the incident qualifies, the TMC will notify the contractor and record the time of notification.
Incentive Payment • ODOT agrees to grant an incentive payment to the prequalified towing contractor if the clearance activity meets the following two requirements: • The contractor shall arrive on scene no more than 45 minutes from being called by the TMC from the hours of 5:30 AM to 7:00 PM Monday-Friday. No more than 60 minutes from initial contact at any other time. • The contractor shall complete clearance activities no more than 90 minutes from being given the go-ahead by the incident commander. • $2500 or $600 show up fee
Extenuating Circumstances • At any time the Incident Commander may direct the Company to stop clearance activities due to extenuating circumstances (HazMat, etc). • When the direction to stop is given by the Incident Commander, the Company shall inform the ODOT TMC. • The “90 minute Clock” will be paused. • When the direction to proceed with road clearance activity is issued, the Company shall inform the ODOT TMC. • The “90 minute Clock” will begin again from where it was paused. • These timestamps must be recorded and verified by the Incident Commander (can be done after the incident).
