(sign/cone up to sign/cone down)!

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.

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

as three separate contracts.

• VDOT plans to coordinate between all three contracts using Program
