The California Transportation Foundation (CTF) has selected two projects carried out by 3220 Parsons for the 27th Annual CTF Transportation Awards. These are the I-15 Integrated Corridor Management System (ICMS) for Operational Efficiency Program of the Year and the Foothill Gold Line extension for Transit/Rail Project of the Year.

As the I 15 ICMS integrator, Parsons installed its cutting edge Intelligent NETworks product to help connect multimodal and multiagency transportation systems along a 32km section of I 15 that serves as the primary artery for California’s San Diego County. A key component of the ICMS is a decision support system (DSS) that recommends and activates response plans for different types of scheduled and unscheduled events. These may occur along the freeway, managed lanes, or parallel arterials. It is the first DDS to integrate network traffic prediction and online micro simulation into a single advanced transportation management system.
