Exploring A Novel Public-Private Partnership Data-Sharing Policy Through A Collaborative Arterial Traffic Management System
According to the latest Urban Mobility Report published by Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI), urban traffic congestion, mostly generated on urban arterials, is a persistently growing problem. In 2017, the total congestion cost in 494 U.S. urban areas was $166 billion and the extra travel time was 8.8 billion hours. Urban congestion is negatively affecting the economy and society of U.S. To solve the urban congestions, the University of Texas Arlington and Georgia Institute of Technology will collaborate to investigate a new Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) Data Sharing Policy through developing a novel arterial system performance monitoring and optimization system.
