selected_emergency_strategy

This data flow is used within the Manage Traffic function to specify the type of traffic control strategy to be applied to some or all of the road (surface streets) and highway traffic control units controlled by a TMC. The strategy will be based on the emergency vehicle route provided by the route selection facility in the Provide Driver and Traveler Services function. It will give preemption to the emergency vehicle(s) by ensuring that they are given the proceed indication (green signal) as they approach each individual intersection, pedestrian and ramp meter control unit along the emergency vehicle route. Another feature of the strategy may be the direction of other vehicles to use particular lanes on a surface street or highway so that the emergency vehicle(s) have a lane for their sole use.
