4 1. California’s Transportation Challenges

5 Calif. Has Largest Population (37 Million = 12% of U.S.)

6 Calif. Population Growing Rapidly (growth rate = twice national average)

7 Calif. Economy is 8 th Largest in World

8 Highly Varied Topography, Climate

9 Four “Seasons” in California …

10 Earthquakes

11 Fires

12 Mudslides

13 Smog

15 Decentralized Funding Sources … and Decision-Making (e.g.: SCAG region – all transportation $) Source: SCAG 2004 RTP ( )

16 Transportation Challenges… Population Economy Congestion Air Pollution Shipping

17 CA is #1 in Traffic Congestion

18 CA is #1 in Congestion (TTI-2003) Total Delay (M-hrs.) Delay per Traveler Los Angeles624 New York405 Chicago253 San Francisco152 Dallas-Ft.

19 CA is #1 in Air Pollution

20 CA is #1 in Freight Traffic

21 So what have we done about it? Let’s look at… Freeway Traffic Management Arterial Traffic Management Traveler Information

22 2. Freeway Traffic Management

23 Historical View: Caltrans District 7 TMC – 1971

24 Caltrans District 7 TMC Real-Time Display of “42-Mile Loop”

25 Current View: Caltrans District 7 TMC – 2007

26 CA Freeway-Management Portfolio ITS Elements M/L Detectors (mi.) Ramp meters Freeway CCTV Freeway DMS HOV lane miles Freeway TMC’s Rank in USA # 1 # 2 # 1 # % of USA 27% 70% 24% 13% ~40% Source: USDOT ITS Deployment Statistics (2004/2005)

27 Recent Freeway-Mgmt. Innovations 1.Freeway-to-Freeway metering (I-105) 2.System-Wide Adaptive Ramp Metering (I-210) 3.HOT lane (SR-91); Managed Lane (I-15) 4.Private Toll Road (SR-125 in San Diego) 5.Integrated Incident-Response System (L.A.) 6.More….

28 Future View: CA Freeway-Management Directions 1.ATMS Real-Time Performance Measures 2.Integrated Corridor Management 3.HOV/HOT lanes; managed lanes; toll roads 4.Freight/trucking projects in SoCal 5.Border & security solutions in SoCal 6.Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII) 7.ITS R&D at UC Berkeley/Davis/Irvine 8.and more….

29 3. Arterial Traffic Management

30 Historical View: Arterial Traffic Management LADOT – late 1920’s: Interconnected, synchronized traffic signals Signal preemption for rail crossing LADOT – 1960: Real-time traffic control system (“PR”) LADOT – 1972: Digital Operating Speeds Inventory, 1400 mi. Inglewood – 1976: First UTCS installation in USA LADOT – 1984: ATSAC – 1984 Olympic Games.

32 Recent Arterial Innovations 1.IEN – L.A. County (more in next pres.) 2.IMTMS – San Diego (more in next pres.) 3.Adaptive Signal Control – LADOT 4.Rapid Bus (29 corridors) – MTA & LADOT 5.and certainly more….

33 Future View: Arterial Management Directions 1.More adaptive signal control 2.Multi-city signal coordination 3.Multi-modal coordination & signal priority 4.Integrated corridor management 5.Extensive data sharing; some shared control 6.Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII) 7.Intersection collision avoidance - CICAS 8.More….

34 4.Traveler Information in California

35 Historical View: Traveler Information Innovations TravInfo: San Francisco Bay area Began 1994 (Internet), 1996 (phone) Initial Info: Transit; fwy incidents, congestion Early call volumes: ~50K per month COMMUTE: Southern Calif. except San Diego Began 1994 (phone) as a “Gateway” Initial Info: (static) Bus, roads, rideshare, …

36 Current View: Traveler Information Innovations MTA “RIITS” (L.A. County) Web maps: freeway & arterial congestion; incidents, CCTV, DMS, bus & rail tracking. Event data base for local agencies SANDAG 511 (San Diego County) Phone (IVR) Internet (freeway speeds, incidents, …) Private ISP’s (SoCal, SF Bay Area) Internet, Phone; Cable TV, PDAs, more…
