Traffic incident management (TIM) is a systematic, planned, coordinated effort to detect, respond to, and remove traffic incidents and restore traffic capacity as safely and quickly as possible. TIM strategies have been introduced to reduce the impact of highway incidents and improve safety and roadway performance. It is critical to understand their benefits and costs and to evaluate associated return on investment for agencies to develop appropriate TIM programs. This article describes a study conducted at the U.S. Federal Highway Administration's Turner Fairbank Highway Research Center to create a simple-to-use, less data-intensive benefit-cost analysis tool for TIM. As a result of the study, the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center developed a web-based traffic incident management benefit-cost tool.
