1. Update on VDOT’s Northern Virginia ITS Architecture Plan and Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) Activities MANAGEMENT, OPERATIONS, AND INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS (MOITS) TECHNICAL SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING, MWCOG Chris Francis Operations Division September 10, 2013

2. Virginia Northern Region Operations (NRO) ITS Architecture Update ITS Architecture Stakeholder Input (many new stakeholders) Planning Operations Transit Rail Public Safety Update of VA NRO ITS Architecture Currently Underway Expected completion by mid October Content consistent with other VA ITS Architectures and adjoining ITS architectures to the extent possible VA NRO ITS Architecture will be in the same format as the other five VA ITS Architectures ITS Architecture Training Half Day – Late October / Early November FHWA-sponsored Systems Engineering – Mid November / Early December

3. Virginia NRO ITS Architecture Significant Changes  I-495/I-395 Express (HOT) Lanes  Remove Remote Workstation, add Center-to-Center with MPSTOC  Add City of Alexandria Public Safety interface  Add Prince William County Office of Public Safety Communications  Add Stafford County Public Safety  VA Transportation Emergency Operations Center (TEOC) capability folded into each VDOT regional TOC including the MPSTOC  VDOT Customer Call Center critical voice communications added to MPSTOC  Plans for a Virginia Transit Information Portal owned by Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (VDRPT)  Information sharing potential for all VA transit properties  Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) for Northern Virginia  Update to I-66 Active Traffic and Demand Management System  Addition of Arlington County ITS Architecture

4. Virginia ITS Architecture Tool  Web-Based Recorded Presentations (Approx 3 hours total)  Introduction  Why is Architecture Useful?  Overview of the National ITS Architecture Version 7.0  Overview of FHWA’s Use and Application of ITS Architecture Primer  Why is Architecture Required?  New Project Development Walk-Through  Demonstration of Systems Engineering Process  How to Manage Architecture Databases using Turbo Architecture  Review of Useful USDOT and Virginia Resources  Each Module will End with an Interactive Quiz

5. I-95/I-395 ICM Initiative – Key Deliverables  Concept-of-Operations  ICM Architecture and Systems Engineering Management Plan  Deployment Plan w/Multimodal Works Packages (Corridor-wide and Segment-based)  ICM Partnership – Ideas for an Institutional Framework for ICM Implementation

6. I-95/I-395 ICM Initiative Activities

7. I-95 / I-395 ICM ConOps & Project Development Task began in October, 2011 Project Limits - Spotsylvania Interchange to 14 th Street Bridge Project Segments I. US 1/17 to Rt 610 (MM126-144) II. Rt 610 to I-495 (MM144-170) III. I-495 to 14 th St Br (I-395, MM0-8) Develop ICM application strategies, and technology-based solutions I-95/I-395 ICM Project Definition

8. ICM Initiative – Stakeholder Engagement

9. ICM Application Strategies  Success of ICM depends on  End-to-End Trip Making  Intra and Inter Modal Shifts  Transit/TDM Strategies are the Drivers  Intra Modal – SOV to HOV  Inter Modal – Highway to Bus, Rail  Enablers  Dynamic Ride Share,  Flex Hours/Telework  Ingress Opportunities – Real Time Travel Conditions, Parking  Information (P&R), Transit Info (Next Bus/Rail)/BRT  Last Mile Opportunities – Shuttle/Zip Car/Bike/Walk

10. Travel Time Information for All Travel Modes Pre-trip and en-route travel time information for multiple travel modes along the corridor (95/395. HOT, US1, bus, train) Delays, congestion, restrictions at bases / work locations Personal trip planning tool (end-to-end, compare/mix travel modes) Address road and transit options and available parking should transit, carpool or slugging option be considered by the traveler Real-time Parking Management and Guidance Park-and-ride space and guidance information (VDOT, VRE, WMATA parking facilities near I-95) for travelers entering the corridor via arterials, where they may have two or more options relative to parking and either carpooling, slugging or using transit. Comparative travel time information for transit options (including next bus / train departure) would be presented along with parking space availability. ICM Concept Applications

11. ICM Emphasis Areas  Operations-Related Work Packages  Segment-based (but includes central hardware/software)  Infrastructure-oriented  En-route orientation  Benefits to various modes  TMP-related  Traveler Information-Related Work Packages  Corridor-wide  Build on 511 / current rideshare initiatives  Pre-trip orientation  Encourage mode shift, moves from SOV to HOV and transit  Entire investment could qualify as a TMP-related offset  Decision Support Performance Management Systems are future elements

12. ICM Building Blocks ICM Infrastructure Freeway Active Traffic Management ICM Traveler Information Personalized Multi-Modal Real-Time Trip Planning ICM Decision Support Performance Management Modeling and Decision Support Existing Traffic DataExisting Transit Data Integrated Single Info Gateway (including kiosks)

13. Achieving the goals to increase dynamic rideshare, change of mode and time of travel will be facilitated through improved transparency of information provided: Travel times for all modes Real-time availability of parking spaces at existing parking areas Better informed travelers will make better decisions on mode, time and route of travel The target is to fill every empty seat across modes! I-95/I-395 ICM Initiative – TDM is Key

14. ICM Initiative - Next Steps  I-95/I-395 Project Specific  Develop an Implementation Plan (underway)  Develop Project Sets for specific applications (underway)  Examples – Enhanced Incident Management, Arterial Management, Ramp Metering, Parking Management, Traveler Information, etc.  Establish a ICM Working Group (to be initiated)  Establish ICM as Program  Development of an ICM Framework  Promote application of ICM on other congested corridors
