Federal Highway Administration Office of Operations – Transportation Management
What is “Active”?1: characterized by action rather than by contemplation or speculation2: producing or involving action or movement 3: asserting that the person or thing represented by the grammatical subject performs the action represented by the verb < in “he hits the ball” is > : expressing action as distinct from mere existence or state 4: quick in physical movement : lively 5: marked by vigorous activity : busy <the stock market was > 6: requiring vigorous action or exertion < sports> 7: having practical operation or results : effective <an law> 8:disposed to action : energetic <took an interest> : engaged in an action or activity <an club member> : currently erupting or likely to erupt — compare dormant 2a, extinct 1b : characterized by emission of large amounts of electromagnetic energy <an galactic nucleus> 9: engaged in full-time service especially in the armed forces < duty> 10 marked by present operation, transaction, movement, or use <an account> 11: capable of acting or reacting : reacting readily < nitrogen> < ingredients> : tending to progress or to cause degeneration < tuberculosis> : capable of controlling voltages or currents : requiring the expenditure of energy < calcium ion uptake> : functioning by the emission of radiant energy or sound <radar is an sensor> 12: still eligible to win the pot in poker 13: moving down the line : visiting in the set —used of couples in contredanses or square dances
Federal Highway Administration Office of Operations – Transportation Management
What Does “Active” Mean from a Transportation Perspective?
Active Management is a real-time concept that contains three elements:– Predictive element using historical and current condition
information to prevent specific situations and resultant impacts– Proactive element addressing immediate situation to alleviate
impacts before they occur– Reactive element to address impacts that have already occurred

The Balance between Static and Dynamic
StaticDenotes fixedor stationarycondition.
(e.g.,static signs,fixed-time signaloperations, time-of-day shoulder use)
Operational Functionality
DynamicDenotes energy oreffective actioncaused by motivation
(e.g.,adaptive signal timings, congestion-triggeredhard shoulder running,fully-variable speed limits)
Federal Highway Administration Office of Operations – Transportation Management
Active Management = Proactive + Dynamic
Active has management and operational components– Proactive – anticipate or pre-empt events that
negatively impact system– Dynamic – use real-time information and
commands to execute operational actions
Federal Highway Administration Office of Operations – Transportation Management
Integration and ATDM
Operational integration – Multi-agency information sharing and cross-network
coordination and operation to facilitate management of the total capacity and demand of the corridor.
Institutional integration – Interagency coordination and collaboration, multi-agency
interoperability, distributed agency roles
Technical integration – Interagency communication links, data sharing, immediate
view and feedback on operating strategies
Federal Highway Administration Office of Operations – Transportation Management
ATDM is Based on Performance Objectives
KPI’s (should be quantifiable and measurable in real-time)
• Travel time• Travel time reliability• Queue clearance time• Crash rates• GHG / carbon footprint• Occupancy / vehicle
• Enforcement %• Capacity utilization• System revenues

Summary of ATDM Operational Philosophy
ATDM is ideally– Active (both proactive and dynamic)– Integrated (technically, institutionally and
operationally)– Driven by Performance Objectives– Management of demand and traffic flow– A way of thinking, not merely a series of
projects / technologies / applications

The ATDM Baseline
We are likely somewhere “in the middle” relative to most operational activities– Some agencies / regions are farther along than others– Management activities are often more proactive than the
systems / technology tools that are used– Truly dynamic operations requires performance
information and predictive capabilities
The baseline helps identify where ATDM initiatives need to “begin”

Steps to Developing the Scenario
Define goals in terms of performance measuresDetermine “ATDM Actions” based on goalsIdentify stakeholders and information-sharing needsAddress operational constraints – use real experience / knowledge from your agency
Identify information processing needs
Federal Highway Administration Office of Operations – Transportation Management
Sample Scenario:Recurring congestion
Measurable Goals– Reduce travel time variability to less than 10% of
average travel time– Reduce vehicle demand in each corridor by 4000
vehicles / day– Reduce average carbon footprint by 10% per
traveler per day based on average CF of 1.5 tons/day/person
– Eliminate rear-end crashes– Eliminate secondary crashes

Representative criteria for selection:• Relevance to multiple operational scenarios?• Ability to measure extent of improvement
compared to baseline operations under various network stress conditions?
• Can incremental benefits of evolutionary CMMI levels be determined?
• Is the package truly proactive or merely highly responsive?
• Can we assess institutional aspects?
