Abstract

The I-10/Santa Monica Freeway Smart Corridor (SC) Demonstration Project is an innovative Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) project that uses advanced control, surveillance, and information technologies to maximize the efficiency and throughput of existing parallel freeway and arterial facilities throughout one of the most heavily traveled corridors in the nation. Because the core characteristics exhibited in the SC project -- multi-agency interaction, advanced control and surveillance techniques, freeway/arterial integration, and real-time traveler information -- are new to many public agencies and private sector firms, such ITS stakeholders can benefit greatly from the SC experience. This paper presents the analysis methodology used, key SC project findings from both institutional and technical perspectives, conclusions drawn regarding agency interactions, policy development, and processes/procedures followed, and "lessons learned" that the SC Agencies themselves are already putting into practice.
