NYMTC Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Regional Integration Strategy

1. NYMTC Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Regional Integration Strategy Public Forum April 24, 2003

2. Background • Building more and wider roadways is either not feasible or not possible due to space limitation. • The opportunity for systems technologies to be applied to support the growing demands on the transportation network infrastructure. • The term intelligent transportation systems (ITS) refers to the application of data processing, data communications, and systems engineering methodologies with the purpose of improved management, safety and efficiency of the surface transportation network.

3. Project Objectives • Allow ITS investments to work together towards regional interoperability (for example, fire and rescue services can communicate with traffic control and transit services) • Enhance interagency cooperation in the management and development of intelligent transportation systems • Target ITS projects and initiatives early in the planning process to facilitate more effective integration.

4. Project Objectives • The Integration Strategy will serve as the ITS chapter in the 2003 Regional Transportation Plan. • The Integration Strategy developed shall follow the requirements described in the US DOT NPRM for Statewide Transportation Planning; Metropolitan Transportation Planning Proposed Rule May 25,2000.

5. Integration Strategy • According to NPRM: • “For the purposes of guiding and coordinating the management and funding of ITS investments supported with highway trust fund dollars to achieve an integrated regional system”

6. Coordination with other Regional ITS Architecture Projects • New York City • Geographic Subset • Focus on Region 11 and original NYC EDP Agencies • New York Statewide Services • Transcom Regional Architecture

7. Regional Scope & Time Frame • 10 County NYMTC Region • Lower Hudson Valley: Westchester, Rockland, Putnam • New York City 5 Boroughs/Counties • Long Island: Nassau, Suffolk • 15 to 20 Year Time Frame

8. Elements of an Integration Strategy • Regional ITS Vision • List of Stakeholders • ITS Inventory including functions and interconnections • List of projects and regional ITS initiatives along with sequencing and resource identification • List of needed agreements

9. Elements of a USDOT Rule 940 or FTA Policy Regional ITS Architecture • Description of Region • Identification of Participating Agencies and Stakeholders • Operational Concept, Agency Roles and Responsibilities • Required Agreements and MOUs • System Functional Requirements • System Interface Requirements (to the level of Architecture Flows) • Identification of Standards • Sequencing of Projects and Implementation • Maintenance Plan

13. Integration Strategy Project Tasks • Document Regional ITS Vision (Completed) • ITS Inventory, Stakeholders, Architecture Analysis (On-Going) • ITS Systems, Functions, Information Exchange • Project Identification, Sequencing/Phasing, and Integration • Draft Integration Plan Documentation and Stakeholder Review Workshops (On-Going) • Integration Strategy Document (Draft Completed) • Final Integration Strategy

14. Vision for ITS in the NYMTC Region • A stakeholder shared vision of ITS based integrated transportation services • Structured by ITS Services/Market Packages • Prioritize Services/Market Packages for the region • Capture a “vision” for groups of Market Packages • (Analysts will offline : Customize Market Packages to depict stakeholder roles to implement the vision) • Establish requirements/constraints for ITS deployments

15. Vision for ITS in the NYMTC Region • ATMS - Advanced Traffic/Transportation Management Systems • MCO - Maintenance and Construction Operations • APTS - Advanced Public Transportation Systems • ATIS - Advanced Traveler Information Systems • AD - Archive Data • EM - Emergency Management • CVO - Commercial Vehicle Operations
