This paper focuses on the proactive management of freeway facilities to balance the capacity of the transportation system and the prevailing demands, and response to out-of-the-ordinary conditions (e.g., incidents, adverse weather, work zones, special events, and emergency evacuations). This paper will benefit all that are involved with highway traffic operations and freeway management, including; State DOT, tollway and toll authority traffic operations managers, and the people who directly support them. Specifically, this document summarizes the state-of-the-practice in freeway management and operations in order to provide a basis for recommending actions that will address gaps between the state-of-the-practice and state-of-the-art. The paper will help those involved with the operation and management of highways providing them with the opportunity to: determine if parts of their system can be considered state-of-the-art or state-of-the-practice; develop ideas for what would be needed to move to state-of-the-art or state-of-the-practice; and develop ideas of activities needed to close the gap between state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice nationally.
