This research quantified the benefits of sharing real-time traffic data and coordinating incident management activities as a combined effort between neighboring agencies in the National Capital Region. Implemented in 2009, the Metropolitan Area Transportation Operations Coordination (MATOC) program worked with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), the Maryland Department of Transportation, the District of Columbia Department of Transportation (DDOT), and the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) to better coordinate response activities and provide better traveler information to improve public safety, vehicle mobility, and environmental impacts.
