Abstract:

As the emphasis by transportation agencies shifts away from new construction and toward the repairing and maintenance of existing facilities, the problem of how to maintain traffic through and around the reconstruction becomes an important issue facing agency officials. The New York State Department of Transportation formed a task force to develop a document to guide the regional offices in the preparation of traffic management plans that may include transportation system management (TSM) actions. A planning process was presented for the regions to follow to determine whether TSM actions were necessary to maintain traffic and a list of possible TSM actions to implement was provided, which was drawn from previous experience in Pittsburgh, Syracuse, and Boston reconstruction projects and reported on the specific application, costs, and effectiveness of the TSM action.
