Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program OfficeNTL-INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS-INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMSFederal Highway AdministrationThe primary objective of this project is to develop multiple simulation testbeds/transportation models to evaluate the impacts of Dynamic Mobility Application (DMA) connected vehicle applications and Active Transportation and Dynamic management (ATDM) strategies. While the project aims at evaluating both DMA applications and ATDM strategies, the primary purpose of this report is to summarize the evaluation done in terms of ATDM strategies using the AMS Testbeds. The full ATDM evaluation results are contained in the report entitled Analysis, Modeling, and Simulation (AMS) Testbed Development and Evaluation to Support Dynamic Mobility Applications (DMA) and Active Transportation and Demand Management (ATDM) Programs \u2014 Evaluation Report for ATDM Program (FHWA-JPO-16-385). DMA evaluation results are documented in separate reports (FHWA-JPO-16-383 and FHWA-JPO-16-384). Dallas, Phoenix, Pasadena, Chicago and San Diego testbeds were used to assess the ATDM strategies under various scenarios of combinations of strategies, prediction attributes and evaluation attributes to answer a set of research questions set forth by the USDOT
