The Early Action Projects Executive Summary serves as a guidance document for initiating and deploying 15 top priority Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Early Action Projects identified as integral to resolving a critical problem and/or addressing a high-priority transportation need within the I-70 West Corridor from Denver to Glenwood Springs. The companion document, Early Action Projects Appendix, details the background and process used to identify the top 15 Early Action Projects from a global project set. One of the elements scoped in the contract for the I-70 Rural IVHS study requires that early action items be identified and detailed prior to completion of the Corridor Master Plan. This Early Action Projects Executive Summary describes those projects. It provides a preview of the types of ITS actions that will be considered and recommended for short- (5 to 10 years), medium- (10 to 25 years), and long-term (beyond 25 years) implementation in the Corridor Master Plan.75
