This report summarizes the results of a regional study whose general purpose was to develop a practical, deployable freeway management plan for the bi-state St. Louis metropolitan area in Missouri, the study area covered the city of St. Louis and St. Charles, Jefferson, Franklin and St. Louis counties. The Illinois counties of Monroe, St. Clair and Madison were also in the study area.The study was undertaken jointly by the Missouri Highway and Transportation Department and Illinois Department of Transportation. A Strategic Deployment Plan was developed that incorporates proven Intelligent Vehicle-Highway System (IVHS) strategies and technologies that should result in increased vehicle speeds, improved air quality, reduced energy consumption, increased system efficiency, and improved safety. Included in the evaluation were Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS) and Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) technologies.
