VDOT CRO Region
  • Operate and maintain field equipment that controls and sends data to other field equipment (such as environmental sensors that send data to a DMS or coordination between traffic controllers on adjacent intersections), without being controlled from a center.
  • Assimilate collected environmental data with other current and forecast road conditions and surface weather information from weather service providers and roadway maintenance operations.
  • Formulate an incident response that takes into account the incident potential, incident impacts, and/or resources required for incident management including proposing and facilitating the dispatch of emergency response and service vehicles.
  • Monitor and control traffic and provide information directly to drivers in maintenance and construction areas using field equipment including CCTV cameras, driver information systems (such as DMS), and gates/barriers.
