"Southeast Nebraska stakeholders working together on technology applications to mitigate congestion, enhance mobility, and improve safety throughout the region."     ITS APPLICATIONS Traffic Management Systems allow professionals to monitor events on major roadway corridors as they occur. Incident response teams can be dispatched quickly, while motorists can be alerted to hazardous conditions ahead. Delays can be predicted and alternate route information transmitted to motorists via changeable message signs. Traffic management systems also allow coordination and manipulation of signal systems to maintain traffic flow and respond to emergency needs. The ability to monitor traffic flow and adjust signals is also a useful tool for managing traffic during special events. Technology applications can help effectively manage alternate travel routes and event parking. Incident Management is aided by ITS technologies that allow real-time monitoring and fast, efficient dispatch of emergency equipment. Fire vehicles can receive priority at intersections by actuating strobe lights as they approach. Prompt response to incidents provides quick medical care to victims and also mitigates traffic flow impacts. Traveler Information Systems collect, coordinate, and disseminate information to roadway users for use in planning trips, selecting travel modes and routes, and purchasing tickets. Maintenance and Construction ITS can make travel through and around major work zones safer and more efficient by gathering, storing, and disseminating work zone information to other systems. The interfaces with other systems allows ITS to plan work zones, monitor and manage construction and maintenance activities, monitor traffic, and provide information to travelers. Maintenance and Construction ITS can make travel through and around major work zones safer and more efficient by gathering, storing, and disseminating work zone information to other systems. The interfaces with other systems allows ITS to plan work zones, monitor and manage construction and maintenance activities, monitor traffic, and provide information to travelers. A Maintenance and Construction subsystem can manage fleets of maintenance construction, or special service vehicles, such as snow and ice control equipment. Information received from the vehicles and the Road Weather Information System can be used for dispatch, routing, and resource management.
