Management systems of regional expressway networks have been gradually put into practice in China. Integrated dispatching is quite essential for traffic agencies to manage incidents occurring on expressways in regional networks. In this case, traditional deployment of expressway incident response trucks for single expressway management is not optimal. This paper presents an optimization strategy, based on p-median model, for expressway managements to effectively deploy expressway incident response trucks in regional expressway networks. The incident data in Shanxi Province are used to illustrate the performance and the effectiveness of the proposed method. The analysis results could serve as the basis for expressway agencies to optimize incident response trucks in regional expressway networks with limited resources.
