RSS73 Iteris has again been selected by the 5701 Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) to provide state-wide road weather forecasting and maintenance decision support services using the Iteris ClearPath Weather service. The service agreement is renewable annually for up to three years, bringing the full potential revenue of a three-year contract to approximately US$1.4 million.
ClearPath Weather is based on Iteris’ proprietary highway condition analysis and prediction system (HiCAPS) pavement condition model and provides CDOT with access to high-resolution road weather forecasting and treatment recommendations during winter weather events. It enables them to proactively manage important roadways, which are heavily used for freight and tourists alike during the winter months.
The cloud-based decision support solution features an easy-to-use interface with state-of-the-art visualisation tools and mapping. This solution provides road maintenance managers with access to critical information such as radar, satellite imagery, weather forecasts, plough location, and route-specific pavement weather and road maintenance treatment recommendations.
The ClearPath Weather service for CDOT also includes severe weather advisories and alerting services, as well as 24/7 direct access to Iteris’ meteorologist forecasting from the company’s state-of-the-art Weather Operations Command Center in Grand Forks, North Dakota.
“We look forward to our continued partnership with CDOT as we provide them with precision pavement weather technology to efficiently manage the Colorado road network,” said Abbas Mohaddes, president and CEO of Iteris.
"Using ClearPath Weather from Iteris has saved us resources and taxpayer dollars by more efficiently managing our response to winter weather events," said David Wieder, CDOT staff maintenance branch manager. "At the same time, we've also improved our capabilities in keeping major corridors, such as I-70 from Denver to Vail, flowing during snow storms. And when it comes to major winter weather events, the Iteris video weather briefings also keep us well informed before, during, and after storms."
