Integrated Corridor Management Systems
The efforts to date to reduce surface transportation congestion have focused on optimization of individual networks. Corridors offer an opportunity to operate and optimize the entire system as opposed to the individual networks. Through the Integrated Corridor Management Systems initiative, the USDOT will provide guidance to assist agencies in implementing Integrated Corridor Operations, create supporting analysis tools, approaches, and technical standards, and demonstrate the value of Integrated Corridor Management.

Pioneer Sites Complete Stage 1 of the Demonstration Phase of the ICM Initiative
On March 31, 2008 the ICM Pioneer Sites completed stage 1 of the demonstration phase of the ICM initiative. Each site has created a concept of operations and systems requirements document for their system. The documents are currently being formatted for the website and USDOT is planning an outreach webinar later this summer to share the Pioneer Site’s lessons learned during the development of their ICM System Concept of Operations and Requirements.
- ICM Knowledgebase Now Available
The ICM Knowledgebase is intended to be a 'one-stop' searchable online reference that provides transportation professionals the tools, strategies, sample documents and knowledge they need to successfully implement ICM in their corridors. The USDOT will be updating the Knowledgebase on a regular basis.
