Abstract

The City of Calgary's Transportation Optimisation Division was initiated in 2004 in order to maximise the effectiveness of the City's existing transportation infrastructure. In 2005, the Division is currently staffed with members with specialties in: Traffic Signals Operations, Traffic Engineering Operations (Signing, roadmarking, traffic safety, detours and parking), Forecasting, Transit Operations/Planning, and Transportation Systems Management. The group is engaged in a systematic approach to evaluating potential issues and identifying cost-effective near-term solutions. This paper presents examples of the prioritisation methodology used in Transportation Optimisation. For the covering abstract of this conference see ITRD number E211426.
