AbstractThe growth experienced in the Fargo-Moorhead (F-M) area has resulted in additional burdens on its transportation system. Although the system functions satisfactorily for the most part, the high demand levels during peak periods, traffic incidents, special events, and inclement weather can result in significant traffic congestion. Limitations of the current transportation system in terms of traffic operations include the following:
The primary goals of a traffic operations center (TOC) are related to enhancing transportation agency coordination and improving transportation system operations and safety. To accomplish these goals, several functions/activities will be performed at the F-M TOC, which will serve as the focal point for collecting, processing, and sharing operational information in the metropolitan area. The information contained in this report is intended to facilitate and document discussions among TOC stakeholders to move toward the goal of establishing a F-M metropolitan TOC.
