Best Practices for Road Weather Management Version 2.0

Title:

White Paper: An Integrated Network of Transportation Information

Abstract:

The integrated network is the "infostructure" that facilitates monitoring, management, and operation of the entire transportation network. The integrated network will enable Road Weather Information and offer the opportunity (1) to detect and respond to regional crises, (2) for fewer and less severe crashes, (3) for better operator and user information, and (4) to reduce energy consumption and negative environmental impacts.
