The objective of this project was to develop system designs for programs to monitor travel time reliability and to prepare a guidebook that practitioners and others can use to design, build, operate, and maintain such systems. Generally, such travel time reliability monitoring systems will be built on top of existing traffic monitoring systems. The focus of this project was on travel time reliability. The data from the monitoring systems developed in this project – from both public and private sources –included, wherever cost-effective, information on the seven sources of non-recurring congestion. This data was used to construct performance measures or to perform various types of analyses useful for operations management as well as performance measurement, planning, and programming. The datasets in this zip file, which is 338.39 MB in size, are in support of SHRP 2 reliability project L38A, "Pilot testing of SHRP 2 reliability data and analytical products: Southern California."

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Border Crossing Data provide summary statistics for inbound crossings at the U.S.-Canada and the U.S.-Mexico border at the port level. Data are available for trucks, trains, containers, buses, personal vehicles, passengers, and pedestrians. Border crossing data are collected at ports of entry by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The data reflect the number of vehicles, containers, passengers or pedestrians entering the United States. CBP does not collect comparable data on outbound crossings. Users seeking data on outbound counts may therefore want to review data from individual bridge operators, border state governments, or the Mexican and Canadian governments.

The datasets in this zip file are in support of FHWA-JPO-16-379, Analysis, Modeling, and Simulation (AMS) Testbed Development and Evaluation to Support Dynamic Mobility Applications (DMA) and Active Transportation and Demand Management (ATDM) Programs - calibration Report for Phoenix Testbed : Final Report. The compressed zip file totals 1.1 GB in size. The zip file have been uploaded as-is; no further documentation was supplied by NTL, excepted as noted: All located .docx files were converted to .pdf document files which are an archival format. These .pdfs were then added to the zip file alongside the original .docx files. The initial zip file presented to NTL contained uncompressed datasets and duplicative zip files of the files. In order to make the overall size of the this zip file more manageable, duplicative files were deleted. The zip file can be unzipped using any zip compression/decompression software. This zip file contains files in the following formats: .pdf document files which can be read using any pdf reader; .cvs text files which can be read using any text editor; .docx document files which can be read in Microsoft Word and some other word processing programs; .txt text files which can be opened with any text editor; .xlsx spreadsheet files which can be read in Microsoft Excel and some other spreadsheet programs; .cfg computer configuration files; .db database files, which can be opened with many database programs; .rif raster image files, these files may have been created by the Corel Painter image editing application, a proprietary software program, although other image programs may open the files [software requirements]. These files were last accessed in 2017.
