Statewide Service Research of Interest to the Dallas Area Research Assistance to TxDOT's Dallas District TTI will help the Dallas District of TxDOT analyze alternatives, possible improvements, and the cost of implementation that would address the varied transportation issues facing this dynamic city and region. The goal is to help TxDOT ensure that the best decisions are made for improving transportation service in these corridors. Evaluation and integration of combinations of modes within a single corridor require the application of emerging strategies that go beyond traditional freeway planning and design. TTI's research staff is uniquely qualified to assist TxDOT in responding to questions and researching solutions to concerns raised throughout the MIS process. US 67 and I-35E are soon to be under construction.
Studies are currently underway to determine optimum operational and design characteristics.
TTI, which is nationally known as a leader in HOV lane operations and planning, will provide research assistance on a number of topics on which they have particular expertise and experience. To address this issue, a steering committee was formed of representatives from public and private transportation entities at all levels, with TTI responsible for developing the ITS plan. The resulting Dallas Area-Wide Service Plan identifies the user services and market packages that address the mobility needs of the region. These systems will help detect, respond and manage traffic incidents, disseminate information on traffic conditions to travelers, and improve delivery of transit services.
