The Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) Clearinghouse is a tool developed as part of a research effort by the Western Transportation Institute to investigate the application of ICM to rural areas.  ICM seeks to coordinate individual network operations between parallel facilities/routes to create an interconnected system allowing cross network travel management.  The intention of the Clearinghouse is to provide agencies with timely information related to the roadway network (including images, chain requirements, closures, etc.) for a broad geographic region.  This information may be used by agencies to implement plans for diverting traffic around impacting events, making better use of existing roadway assets.  The Clearinghouse is not intended to replace sound judgment based on past experience on the part of agencies.
