| Abstract | The FHWA Road Weather Management Program partnered with Utah DOT to develop and implement advanced traveler information strategies during weather events. UDOT already has one of the most sophisticated Traffic Operations Centers (TOCs) in the country in terms of how they obtain and integrate road weather information with traffic management decisions and traveler information dissemination (see Figure 1). UDOT currently has a robust road weather condition and forecasting system that provides information to the traveling public through several dissemination methods. As part of this implementation, UDOT focused on the initial deployment of a citizen reporting program, and improvements to their traveler information website (UDOT Traffic) and mobile applications. |
