Salem Project Performance Project Development & Delivery
District Improvement Strategies:
• Continue working with our localities to help develop/monitor schedules and holding quarterly teleconferences to discuss project progress.
• DE, DME and DCE working closely with contractor’s senior managers and industry leaders to improve quality and program delivery.
• Added a third ACE to serve the Bedford and Martinsville Residencies and re-structured staff under the District Project Controls Engineer to improve
consistency with schedules / CTD’s and to help identify scope, constructability concerns, and industry resource constraints.

Regional Operations
Strategies and Plans Going Forward
Focus on Real-Time Traffic Operations
• Signals, especially in support of detours
• Interstate 77 ATSMS with variable speed limits
• Smart Road Technology Funds will help fund ITS investments
• CCTV cameras
• Dynamic Message Boards
• 360 degree intersection cameras
Focus on Traffic Safety
• Continuing use of Flashing Yellow Arrow and backplates
• Roadway departure counter measure projects
• Residency-focused safety support and collaboration with paving schedule
Statewide TOC and ATMS Programs
• As of March 1, Iteris is currently staffing the Traffic Operations
Centers (TOC) floor services in a 24-month contract.
• VDOT intends to re-procure SSP/TOC, ATMS, and ITS Maintenance
