From this month, drivers along Plum Creek Parkway heading toward I-25, in Castle Rock, Colorado, are to benefit from a new traffic management system that will reduce congestion during the road’s busiest hours. VMS signs will designate lane assignments at certain times of the day. The technology is an example of how ITS can increase capacity on busy roads reducing the need for expensive road-building projects.
