What is TSM&O?
TSM&O Vision
How TSM&O relates to Caltrans’ mission and CTP vision
The “whole enchilada” - Integrated Corridor Management
Congested Corridors to Connected Corridors
Transportation System Management & Operations
In partnership with transportation stakeholders, Transportation System Management & Operations (TSM&O) envisions a coordinated, well-maintained and efficiently performing technological infrastructure.
TSM&O uses real-time traffic management to improve safety, optimize flow and minimize transportation impacts on the environment, while adhering to statewide standards and consistency with federal rules and regulations.

Workforce & Collaboration
2. Managed – Objectives Aligned with Key Entities
4. Optimized - High level of TSM&O coordination among owner-operators
(state, local)
The “Whole Enchilada” – Integrated Corridor Management Caltrans seeks to implement
TMS&O on our most congested corridors through Integrated Corridor Management, or ICM.
(ICM) Optimizes the use of existing infrastructure assets and leverages unused capacity
10
Integrated Corridor Management
ICM is a coordinated system management of freeways, ramps, arterials and other local roadways to provide safe, reliable travel for all users in all modes, using: Fully functioning TMS systems Well-maintained infrastructure Managed/Priced lanes Advanced ramp meter operations Enhanced communication networks Freeway Service Patrol & Incident Management
strategies Enhanced traveler information Decision support system Approved concepts of operations with local and
regional partners

CALTRANS MISSION AND CTP VISION
Provide a safe, sustainable, integrated and efficient transportation system to enhance California’s economy and livability.
California's transportation system is safe, sustainable, and globally competitive. It provides reliable and efficient mobility and accessibility for people, goods, and services while meeting our greenhouse gas emission reduction goals and preserving community character. This integrated, connected, and resilient multimodal system supports a prosperous economy, human and environmental health, and social equity.
MISSION CTP VISION
14
Changing Congested Corridors to Connected
Corridors Caltrans will lead
ICM implementation in California by targeting the most congested corridors.
Connected Corridors: Enables coordination of
existing transportation infrastructure and vehicles
Delivers improved corridor performance
Improves accountability
Evolves Caltrans to real-time operations and management
Enhances regional , local and private sector partnerships
15
State, Regional and Local Partnerships

Connected Corridors Pilot – Overview Caltrans/UC PATH/Regional collaborative effort to
select the most suitable corridor Corridor’s Infrastructure readiness Least impacted by planned construction Cities’ relative infrastructure/ technological
advancement Significant Congestion Number of Incidents and Events Parallel arterials Top Priority Corridors for Investment – I-110 and I-210
in Los Angeles and the SR-57/SR-91/ I-5 triangle in Orange County

Presentation for thePolicy Advisory Committee
California Transportation Plan 2040April 15, 2014
Agricultural Land Stewardship Planning
• Proposed projects could have huge impacts
on agriculture through land use changes
• Social and economic impacts not well suited
to CEQA, NEPA action
• Public wants involvement in program
planning
UC Small Farm Program
DWR Recognized a Critical Need:
• Engage Delta Farm Community in the BDCP Ag Issues
DWR Strategy:
• Create Agricultural Land Stewardship Work Group
Our Agricultural Stewardship Approach: • Gather mitigation ideas
• Meet with agricultural interests
• Build a set of creative options
• Refine options with input from agriculture
Principles• Voluntary actions• Consistent with project objectives• Provides benefits where impacts occur• Keep farmers on land

Recommendations from TAC- HOV/HOT lanes
- Increase occupancy rate +2 to +3- Completion of HOV network
- Transit- Increase frequency- Reduce transit fares
- Include all elements of Transportation System Management and Operation (TSMO) for Operational Efficiency cluster
- Park and ride lots (Roll into expand transit strategy)
- Voluntary Travel Behavior Change - Speed limits
