  4. Multi-State Vehicle-Probe Based Traffic Monitoring

  5. “In one of the biggest rollouts yet for technology designed to help motorists avoid traffic jams, the I-95 Corridor Coalition will announce plans today to disseminate real-time data on traffic flows and accidents along the East Coast using a satellite network by Inrix, Inc.” The Wall Street Journal January 29, 2008

  6. Background • Multi-state traffic monitoring project • RFP developed starting in 2006 • Based on vehicle probe technology • Includes freeways and arterials • RFP Released 4/27/2007 • Traffic speed and travel time data service • A three year initial project • Options to extend up to an additional 7 years (10 year total) • Individual members can purchase additional coverage, consulting services and extend project duration

  7. Objectives • Advance the timeframe within which regional travel time and speed information is available to the Coalition and its members • Applications • 511 • Travel time on signs • Support of ICAT and ISN • Support management of major incidents • Provide data to members for planning, engineering and operations • Inform members of conditions in neighboring jurisdictions • Provide a contract vehicle for expansion of traffic monitoring coverage • Improved regional performance measurement

  8. Technical Specs & Details • Travel Time and Speed Data • Maximum average absolute error of 10 MPH in each of the following speed ranges:0-30 MPH, 30-45 MPH, 45-60 MPH and > 60 MPH (space-mean-speed) • For flows exceeding 500 VPH • Maximum latency of 8 minutes • INRIX … • Provides update every five minutes • Based primarily on fleet GPS data, though any source data can be integrated • INRIX also includes an expected/predicted speed based on historical data

  9. Data Rights and Data Licensing • Vendor Retains Ownership of Data • Coalition and Member Organizations • Full Rights for all internal applications • Access to Data Archive • External apps supported Travel time on CMS, Web, 511 Limits on granularity of data displayed • See section 6.0 of RFP

  10. Timeline • History • RFP released : 4/27/2007 • Received proposals : 6/22/07 • Proposal evaluation : 8/07 – 11/07 • Recommendation for award : 11/6/07 • Contract award : 12/14/07 • Projected Implementation • NTP (initial task order) : 2/1/08 • Core System Data Available : 7/1/08 • Accuracy evaluation complete : 10/1/08

  11. Network Coverage Summary • Initial Coverage • ~1500 miles of Freeway, ~1000 Arterials • Spans New Jersey to North Carolina • Results of member survey • Expansion of Coverage • States can utilize contract to expand coverage • Implemented through task orders • Coordinate through University of Maryland • Consulting services also available

  12. Initial Network Coverage

  19. Initial Task Overview

  20. Initial Task Scope Data Files • Content • Real-time Speed, Travel Time, Confidence level • Expected Speed, Free Flow Speed • Road Segments • “TMC” location codes • Update Rate/Latency • Agencies access ~ every 2 mins • Up to date data returned via XML files Monitoring Site • Agency Access Only • View data in real-time • Access to data archive Coverage • ~ 1530 “freeway” miles (“fee”) • Subject to RFP performance metrics • <= 1000 arterial miles (“free”) • Arterial test bed

  21. Monitoring Site - Sample Visualization • Site centers on State accessing it • State dropdown lists coalition States • Select state to pan to it • Panning and zooming control • Select all roads, only freeways or only arterials for display • TMC details bubble shown on specific segment click

  22. TMC = “Traffic Message Channel” Tele Atlas and Navteq jointly created and maintain/expand a common set of codes Uniform way of identifying “where” on the major roads in the U.S. Leverages approach first taken in Europe Segments basically are: Freeways/limited access roads: at and between interchanges, boundaries, toll plazas Arterials: between other major arterials, freeways, boundaries TMC Location Codes

  23. Project Delivery Milestones

  24. Project Team/Options

  25. INRIX is Prime Contractor Data Options – Additional source data SpeedInfo DTS Note: agency sensor data always welcomed! Consulting Team PBS&J (lead) Enterinfo (MD minority firm) Open Roads Tele Atlas Berkeley Transportation Systems U. of Washington Transportation Research Center Team

  26. SpeedInfo Role Maker/operator of low cost radar sensor network Agencies can task us to add sensors to project • Optional enhancement • Agencies pick how many and where SpeedInfo O&M’s the sensors • $200/month per sensor to SpeedInfo All resulting data added to the dust network

  27. Leader in traffic count station consulting, O&M Have statewide contracts for VDOT and FDOT Have converted VDOT count stations to “dual-use” This contract makes VDOT terms available to Coalition/members Options for agencies to build, upgrade count stations to get data to us DTS Role

  28. Consulting Services Team RFP Requirements • Offerors shall provide consulting services to assist… • Consulting Services will be provided solely on an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity basis… • Such services may encompass but are not limited to: • Integration • GIS • Web site • Analysis Tools PBS&J • Lead Consultant • Strong in all areas Open Roads Consulting • Integration of feeds • ATMS and ATIS experience EnterInfo (MD DBE) • System integration and testing • GIS • Website development Berkeley Transportation Systems • Decision support systems • Traffic forecasting Tele Atlas • TMC code assistance UW TRAC • Overall traffic data and travel time advisor/ national expert • Decision support • Performance measures

  29. Options for Utilizing Contract DATA Coverage Expansion • “Core” states adding coverage • New states adding coverage • Per mile costs: $150 startup, $750 annual Adding Source Data • SpeedInfo sensors • DTS – add/upgrade count stations • Add data to existing coverage • Add data with coverage expansion Additional Data Feeds • Slowdown Alerts • Weather Alerts • Incidents CONSULTING Applications planning System design/development Integration GIS Applications Data Analysis Evaluation Etc.
