In January 1995, the Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization with the help of an interagency Study Review Committee began the process of developing a Congestion Management System (CMS) Plan. Aided by the consultant team of HNTB Corporation and JHK & Associates, the final product of this study is this CMS Process Report. This report documents the process of developing the CMS target network of congested corridors and identifies potential congestion management strategies for each targeted congested corridor. The role of CMS is to provide relevant and technically sound strategic recommendations to the planning process. It is not intended to transcend the decision-making process of the Indianapolis Regional Transportation Plan (IRTP) and the Indianapolis Regional Transportation Improvement Program (IRTIP). The CMS serves a useful purpose in supporting and complementing the JRTP and IRTIP through the systematic provision of information on the system performance measures and the costs and benefits of alternative congestion management strategies. The Indiana Department of Transportation is responsible for developing the Statewide CMS as well as integrating the individual Metropolitan Congestion Management Systems into the Statewide Plan.
