State of Texas ITS Architectures and Deployment Plans: West Central Texas Region. Executive Summary
The West Central Texas Region is bordered by the TxDOT Childress, Wichita Falls and Fort Worth Districts to the north, the TxDOT San Angelo and Austin Districts to the south, the TxDOT Waco District to the east, and the TxDOT Odessa and Lubbock Districts to the west. For the West Central Texas Regional ITS Architecture and Deployment Plan, the study area included all 13 counties that comprise the TxDOT Abilene District and the 9 counties that comprise the TxDOT Brownwood District. The West Central Texas Region has an extensive transportation infrastructure. The primary roadway facilities include I-20, US-67, US-83, US-84, US-87, US-180, US-183, US-277, US-283, and US-377. I-20 is as east-west, divided interstate highway. The effective operation of this highway is critical to the movement of goods and people through the State of Texas and the United States. I-20 starts in South Carolina and ends at I-10 in west Texas. Blockages along I-20 can have serious implications on drive-time for commercial vehicles and motorists alike due to the lack of obvious alternate routes. Knowing the road and travel conditions within this transportation corridor and having the ability to disseminate this information to motorists are important elements for this project. For example, if I-20 has been closed due to a major incident or weather, and motorists are informed of the closure in advance, they can take an alternate route or wait to begin their travels.
