Abstract

This paper describes the integrated approach that the Denver Metro Area is taking towards implementation of Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMSs) on its regional freeway system and arterial street network. This paper describes the Denver Traffic Operations Center (TOC). It discusses the functions, responsibilities and service provisions of the TOC, IVHS components to be controlled from the facility, staffing arrangements, organizational issues and plans for its phased implementation and operation. The broad multi-jurisdictional base of the Denver TOC, along with the range of functions provided, combine to form an operations center capable of meeting the Denver Metro Area's current and projected traffic management needs.
