Where we are headed… Creating a Regional TSMO Vision and Deployment Plan Stakeholder Engagement Developing a Common Vision Our focus Establish a TSMO vision for the region today Develop operations goals and objectives Defining the Building Blocks Develop a baseline inventory of ITS and ATMS infrastructure Explore best practices in transportation data governance and data exchange Update the regional ITS Architecture Conduct technological assessment Leading to Effective Deployment Identify pilot concepts Develop ITS/TSMO Local Agency Deployment Guide Develop 5-year and 10-year Action Plans 3
Transportation System Management and Operations (TSMO) Overview 4
What is Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO)? Integrated strategies to optimize the OFFICIAL DEFINITION OF TSMO performance of existing infrastructure… Integrated strategies to optimize the performance of existing infrastructure Multimodal coordinated systems, services, through the implementation of multimodal and intermodal, cross- and projects… jurisdictional systems, services, and projects designed to preserve capacity and improve security, safety, To preserve capacity and improve security, and reliability of the transportation system. safety, and reliability for users of the 23 U.S. Code § 101(a)(30) transportation network MAP-21, SECTION 1103 (a) (30) (A) 5
So really, what is TSMO? TSMO is actively managing the multimodal transportation network to improve safety and mobility outcomes. ▪ Optimizing the performance of existing facilities ▪ Maximizing performance of the system ▪ Targeted solutions to congestion causes ▪ Complement to capacity projects (integrated into new infrastructure) 6
TSMO Strategies - Samples Actively managing the multimodal transportation network to deliver improved safety and mobility outcomes Demand mgmt. Integrated Traffic signal corridor coordination Traffic management incident Managed management lanes Transit operations Shared Parking mobility mgmt. Traveler information 7
“TSMO Sounds Like What Agencies Already Do…” ▪ Yes! Agencies throughout Georgia already support key TSMO programs, such as traffic incident management, traffic signal systems, TMCs, travel demand management, and traffic management for planned special events.

TSMO Builds on Systems and Technology….. …. more than ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) Emphasizes coordination and collaboration across a wide array of partners and jurisdictional boundaries 9
Developing a Regional TSMO Vision 10 9/21/2017
The Need for a TSMO Vision and Deployment Plan TSMO in 2040 Connected and automated vehicles New data sources New modal options Creating a Common and business models Vision for TSMO in the Metro Atlanta Region TSMO Today Building on a Strong Regional Foundation for TSMO • Long history of collaboration on TSMO • Robust policy framework, with emphasis on system reliability • Strategic programs and projects, including RTOP, NaviGAtor, Strategic Regional Thoroughfares Program, express lanes program • Significant data collection (from Waze, Traffic Incident Management program, etc.) 11
What is a TSMO Vision? A vision provides a shared intention and direction for a program or focal point for the region. Should speak to high-level outcomes and be consistent with and support the region’s overall vision. May identify core principles or goals for how the transportation system should be operated. 12
Atlanta’s “Win The Future” Vision 13
Key Objectives in the RTP that Relate to TSMO ▪ The “Atlanta Region’s Plan Vision: World Class Infrastructure, Competitive Economy, and Healthy Livable Communities.” ▪ Transportation Objectives 1. Maintain and operate the existing transportation system to provide for reliable travel 2. Improve transit and non-SOV options to boost economic competitiveness and reduce environmental impacts 3. Strategically expand the transportation system while supporting local land use plans 4. Provide for a safe and secure transportation system 5. Promote an accessible and equitable transportation system 6. Support the reliable movement of freight and goods 7. Foster the application of advanced technologies to the transportation system 14
Key Elements of Other Plans that Relate to TSMO (1) Regional Transportation Demand Management Plan (2013) – Goals and Strategies 1. Improve customer convenience and user experience – Improve connection of TDM to regional information systems 2. Increase transportation connectivity, mode choice, and access – Strategically link express bus service, local transit, vanpools, managed lanes and park and ride lots 3. Streamline regional coordination of policies, programs, services, and investments 4. Leverage and diversify funding sources for program sustainability 5. Pursue continuous performance and operations improvement – Establish a single portal for collection and reporting of TDM and other transportation data 15
Key Elements of Other Plans that Relate to TSMO (2) ▪ Atlanta Regional Freight Mobility Plan Update (2016) ▪ Outcome 1: Competitive Economy – Ensure a productive operating environment for freight transportation in the region. ▪ Outcome 2: World Class Infrastructure – Ensure competitive freight performance in six key dimensions: travel time, reliability, cost, safety, sustainability, and risk management. – Manage the critical role of first, last, and transfer miles in the end-to- end performance of the region’s supply chains. – Plan for the impact and promote the appropriate use of information, connected vehicle technologies, and driverless vehicles technologies to improve the productivity, safety, and visibility of freight movement. ▪ Outcome 3: Healthy, Livable Communities – Plan and design our community centers for the timely and fuel efficient supply of goods necessary for living and working. – Promote the adoption of efficient freight vehicles and technologies offering safer, environmentally cleaner performance. – Define and adopt commercially viable methods to deliver goods on a 24-hour clock . 16
Key Elements of Other Plans that Relate to TSMO (3) ▪ Regional Transportation Technology Policy Document (2016) – Policy Areas of Focus Investments in transportation infrastructure and technologies Facilitate data sharing to take advantage of new and and integration amongst emerging technology . public agencies and between the public and private sectors. Actively manage travel demand and optimize system performance. 9/21/2017 17
Key Elements of Other Plans that Relate to TSMO (4) ▪ Atlanta Regional ITS Architecture (2004, 2011 update) - Vision ▪ Develop an extensive communications network that will provide direct, real time information to any local and state transportation and incident response agency that participates in transportation operations…. ▪ Provide real time traveler information through various media to the public. ▪ Provide an institutional environment that emphasizes efficient operations of the transportation system and provides technological tools that enhance the operations of all transportation and incident response agencies. ▪ Develop a process that monitors system performance and allows for system growth and enhancement. 18
