North/West Passage TPF Study Work Plan: Phase 2

Overview

This document is a report on the projects accomplished in phase 2 of the Work plan, namely, ITS Integrated Corridor Strategic Planning INcluding Development of Traveler Information and Maintenance Network. The purpose of these projects is to develop a North/West Passage ITS Integrated Corridor Strategic Plan while continuing to develop, expand implementation, and evaluate integrated traveler information systems. This will include maintenance operations across state borders and the development of safety improvement systems. The plan will focus on center-to-center opportunities and include a high-level architecture for the corridor, an inventory of communication coverage, and a coordinated deployment/operations concept for traveler information systems. Suggested projects for the corridor to pursue are identified. The location of Phase II projects will expand on the initial geographic area of I-94 through North Dakota, Wisconsin, and Minnesota as additional states commit funding.
