ITS Network desired that is capable of providing multiple solutions for transportation as well as emergency management and first responders for network access before, during, and after another catastrophic event.

6. Assessing the Alternatives Fiber network? Wireless Network? Hybrid Network? Fiber network? Wireless Network? Hybrid Network? What resources and assets survived the storm? What resources and assets survived the storm? What assets are likely to survive a future catastrophic event(s)? What assets are likely to survive a future catastrophic event(s)? What assets did not survive the storm and were not likely to survive another catastrophic event once replaced? What assets did not survive the storm and were not likely to survive another catastrophic event once replaced? MDOT determined that Wireless Networks provided the greatest survivability with additional Public Safety and Emergency Response benefits before, during, and after another catastrophic event!
