Working Goals

Provide all decision-makers with a common picture by allowing them to look at the same data.

Allow decisions to be made by the person in the best position to make it, all things considered.

Make decisions in an open manner so that all know what is happening and can contribute as necessary or desired.

Eventual Result

Better traffic flow management decisions are made since each decision is made by the right person, with the best data and with valuable input from others.
