Integrated Corridor Management Systems Website

 This website provides information on the Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) Systems Initiative. The basic premise of the ICM Initiative is that "the whole is more than the sum of its parts." The goal of the ICM Initiative is to apply that premise to key transportation corridors. By working together – highways and transit, engineering and planning – and by integrating previously isolated systems, corridor throughput can be increased and mobility can be enhanced. The website contains results from completed activities and points-of-contact.

Integrated Corridor Management Phase 1 – Concept Development and Foundational Research (2006)

 This series of technical memoranda lays the foundation for the Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) Initiative. A concept of operations for a generic 15-mile corridor serves as an example that can be used by agencies for developing their own concept of operations. An implementation guide identifies and discusses the steps needed to support the development, implementation, and operation of a ICM system. A definitions document discusses the key attributes included in the ICM Initiative. A criteria document presents concepts that should be considered when delineating corridor boundaries. A white paper discusses the similarities, differences and interrelationships between ICM and regional traffic management. Finally, a technical memorandum identifies current modeling tools that support evaluation of various corridor types and ICM operational strategies and recommends enhancements to those tools in areas where the analysis capabilities are insufficient to meet the Initiative's needs.
