Since the introduction of digital computers more than 50 years ago, continuous developments in computer technology, emerging data sources, and communications have created opportunities for operational strategies and performance measures to improve freeway network safety and mobility.
NCHRP Research Report 1080: Using Cooperative Automated Transportation Data for Freeway Operational Strategies, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, is an assessment of transportation operational scenarios and use cases where freeway operational strategies could be improved through the transmission of data between a transportation management system and the larger cooperative automated transportation system.
Supplemental to the report is a source code archive, a PowerPoint presentation, and an Implementation Plan.
