Research staff formulated a plan for collecting information from various jurisdictions and for testing new or improved vehicle detection systems. Then they presented the plan to the project director, the program coordinator, and the Project Monitoring Committee (PMC). Knowledge of the research team from previous detector research was instrumental in identifying and recommending systems that had not been thoroughly tested in the Texas environment or had received close scrutiny only in limited ways on low-volume roadways.
