The business case for training incident responders: 1. The safety of incident responders. 2. The safety of all road users. 3. Congestion mitigation and commerce.

In a typical year, the following number of responders are struck and killed: 10 Law Enforcement Officers. 4 Fire and Rescue Personnel. An estimated 40-60 Towing and Recovery Professionals. Several transportation professionals from DOTs, Public Works, and Safety Service Patrol Programs.

Secondary Crashes Responder Struck By Incidents Roadway Clearance Time (RCT) Incident Clearance Time (ICT)

As TIM programs mature, they collect more and detailed data for performance-informed planning and operations.

What Are Key Performance Measures?

SLIDE 6

How do you identify responders who are struck among hundreds or thousands of pedestrian crashes?

How do we find TIM-related crashes?

SLIDE 7

Model Minimum Uniform Crash Criteria (MMUCC) 5th Edition

Under the Persons data elements, Person Type (P4) contains

an element for “Pedestrian (P4.1)”, Incident Responder (P4.2), and if YES, Type of Incident Responder 01 EMS 02 Fire 03 Police 04 Tow Operator 05 Transportation 4 states currently have something similar – More to follow.

SLIDE 8

5th Edition Summer 2017

Include the following data elements:
C2 Crash Date and Time: Roadway Cleared
C3 Secondary Crash: Y/N
NM2.1 “Working in Trafficway (Incident Response)”
P4.1 “Pedestrian” (Typically already present)
P4.2 “Incident Responder?” and
P4.2 “Yes, Type of Responder” with responder list
Time Scene Cleared (Not MMUCC, used by 1/3 states)

Accomplishments Highlights

Crash Reports Data Collection Traffic Management Center (TMC) Data Collection

Nine States now collecting at least one TIM

Performance Measure in their crash reports; 10 will add measures

Three States are training law enforcement
n data collection

Six States improving TMC (training, software) data collection for TIM Performance Measures

Federal Highway Administration Traffic Incident Management

The FHWA TIM Program goals are to advance safety and operations across the transportation system. FHWA will achieve these goals by pursuing two courses of action:

Continued focus on traditional programs such as training,

program development and capacity building, and

Taking a leadership role with emerging technologies for

responders:

Connected and automated vehicles
Computer aided Dispatch
Data collection and use
Accident reconstruction and more

11

SLIDE 12

Next Steps for the National TIM Program

Developing a new TIM business case for national

and State programs.

Drafting a new 5-year Roadmap, which will:
Keep traditional efforts (training, self assessments,

program development, use of data)

Incorporate advancing TIM-related technologies:
Connected/Automated Vehicles and Automated Driving Systems
Integrated Computer-Aided Dispatch
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)
Crowdsourcing/Big data

12

SLIDE 13

The Future of TIM Nationally

Better trained TIM Responders.
Increase the use of data to identify needs/focus.
Connected and Automated Vehicle opportunities.
Increased use of practical exercise facilities.
Statewide or Regional TIM conferences.
Expanded use of Integrated Computer-Aided

Dispatch.

Other Emerging Technologies (e.g., UAVs, Big Data).
Crowdsourcing for Operations – early notification.
