Abstract:

The workshop session on roles and responsibilities began with a discussion of what was meant by an integrated transportation management system. There was agreement that the context of Integrated Transportation Management Systems (ITMS), as defined in the symposium, is operations oriented. There was also an extensive discussion regarding the relationship of ITMS to the management systems mandated in the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) and to the overall transportation planning process. Concerns were expressed that too many jurisdictions and agencies are vertically oriented and may lack the horizontal integration needed to support ITMS. The focus of the workshop then turned to identifying issues related to the roles and responsibilities of the various players involved in ITMS from an operational perspective. Issues and opportunities were identified (and are listed here) for the seven major groups involved in ITMS--the federal government, state governments, local governments, metropolitan planning organizations, emergency services, transit agencies, and private sector groups.
