7. Incident Management
• Managing traffic incidents is a proven strategy for addressing
significant portions of traffic congestion.
• Traffic incident management programs have demonstrated
success in improving mobility, safety, efficiency, productivity,
energy and environment, and customer satisfaction.
• Traffic incident management programs make use of a variety
of ITS technologies to successfully detect, manage, and clear
traffic incidents
8. Strategies to Improve IM
Effective IM requires a toolbox of strategies:
• Political level
• Political support in the form of policy and top-level management support
for IM-focused objectives
• Institutional level
• The Institutional cooperation, understanding and collaboration need to be
in place for an effective programme
• Functional level
• The functional elements need to be implemented in the form of new
services and new processes
• Technological level
•Technology tools can support real-time monitoring and faster response to
freeway incidents
9. Political /Policy Level
• In July 1996, a National Incident Management Technical
Committee was established to prepare national guidelines and a
policy on the development, implementation and maintenance of
Incident Management in South Africa.
• IMS is still being implemented in a fragmented way throughout
South Africa, warranting a review.
• The DOT together with SANRAL were mandated to develop a
National Policy, Framework and Guidelines for IMS in the
country, involving all stakeholders.
10. Political /Policy Level cont…
• The documents will to ensure that the development of further RIMSs
take place in a consistent manner.
• Establishing a Governance Structure for Road Incident Management.
• RIMS National Technical Committee
• RIMS Provincial Coordinating Committee
• Developing Procedures and Protocols incorporated in a Guideline
Plan for operational application.
•
• Memorandum of Understanding/Agreement amongst all the
organizations/agencies regarding accepted procedures and
protocols to be followed in the event of any incident.
11. Political /Policy Level cont….
• National Road Traffic Act, 1996 (Act No 93 of 1996) deals with
accidents and accident reports. The scope of this chapter was
extended to also cover Incident Management Systems through an
Act amendment by making an empowering provision and referring
to the IMS Policy as one of the schedules to the NRTA.
• The proposal is to add section 62A “ Response to road incident”.
62A In the event of a road incident, the emergency services
shall immediately respond to the incident and render all the
necessary services in compliance with the Incident Management
System Policy as shown in Schedule 5 and any applicable
legislation.
12. Political /Policy Level cont….
• Consultation will take place and it is envisaged that it will be
approved by the Minister of Transport end of March 2012.
• Road Shows at all provinces will start for 1 April 2012 to inform
all stakeholders of the content of the new material.
13. Example: Political /Policy
intervention
• In the U.S. 49 states implemented at least one of these laws –
only 24 have implemented all three.
• Quick Clearance – quickly removing any vehicles involved in an
incident from the scene to maintain mobility along the roadway
• Move It Over – the motorist is to move to another lane or slow
down when approaching responders/tow trucks/public safety
(police, fire) to provide a “safe zone”
• Remove it – motorists move vehicles out of the travel lanes
following a minor, non-injury incident – here is where information
is exchanged
• One of the biggest concerns is ensuring the public is aware of
the laws and what they mean.

15. Institutional level
• Inter-agency teams/intergovernmental agreements
• Cape Town co-located TMC
• Joint funding and cooperation agreements
• Agreement on processes and policies to overcome institutional
barriers:
• Common goals, common objectives
• Standardise practices,
• Awareness of partner roles
• Benefits are beyond any single role player
16. Functional level
• Provision of a 24/7 value add services in Gauteng to ensure
safe will be deployed at satellite centers strategically deployed
across the Freeway network in Gauteng
• Number of vehicle services deployed:
• 8 Heavy tow and recovery units ( Rigs)
• 10 Light Towing and recovery unit ( roll backs)
• 10 Incident Response Unit
• 10 Motorcycle Medic Response Units
• Services will be dispatched from the TMC for a quick response
time of between 12 and 15 minutes to each accident scene, in
normal traffic conditions.

21. Technical level
• Technology to assist with IM
• Traveler information (VMS, websites, etc.)
• Responder communications (remote scene monitoring, prompt
dispatch, i.e Sweden has pioneered use of incident response
vehicles that have truck mounted VMS, a video camera to transmit
scene images to TMC, and also equipped with attenuators on the
back of the vehicle to help protect responders on-site)
• Incident investigations (CCTV, detectors, assistance patrols, etc.)
• Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) to support IM
• SMS
• Twitter
• Mobile Apps

24. Reported Benefits
• The most significant findings of traffic incident management programs ability
to reduce the duration of traffic incidents, most studies finding savings of 30
to 40 %..
• Service patrol in Hampton Roads, Virginia, decreased the average incident
duration by 70.7 percent
• Service patrol in Northern Virginia on average decreased incident duration
by 15.6 percent for crashes, 25 percent for roadway debris, and 17.2 percent
for breakdowns.
• A San Antonio, Texas deployment of VMS, combined with an incident
management program, resulted in a 2.8 % decrease in crashes.
• The Coordinated Highway Action Response Team in Maryland reduced
incident duration and related secondary incidents by 29%.

25. Conclusion
• In an effort to support World Government initiative Decade of Action
(DoA) to reduce the effect of poor road safety.
• The amendment of legislation, drafting of a national framework, policy
and procedures manual is a welcomed intervention to embed the
ethos and principles of co-operation and teamwork when dealing with
incidents.
•The introduction of technology will assist in effectively managing our
road network. “ITS is more than just technology, it’s a culture” UNECE
(United Nations economic Commission for Europe)
•Action and smart interventions are needed to retain a vibrant transport
sector that can adjust to global trends, economic state and local
environment.
