Incident Management Service. The Freeway Traffic Management Center provides for incident detection to identify any incidents or emergencies that require support from appropriate resources. It also allows for adjustments in traffic control to enable faster response by incident resources and to reduce impacts due to incidents by allowing traffic to be diverted to alternate routes and by alerting the travelers to conditions that they may encounter due to on-going incidents. Highway Helper Vehicles provide a patrol capability to find and assist in clearing incidents from the roadways such as to minimize disruptions to traffic flow.
