ADOT's Traffic Operations Center is on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. It's the nerve center for our daily efforts to safely connect Arizonans and empower our state's economy.
You may well have seen what we call the TOC (we sound out letters T-O-C) in news coverage or in pictures shared on ADOT's social media accounts. Operators face a massive wall with dozens of monitors that allow them to keep an eye on traffic conditions and coordinate responses to crashes, closures and other incidents.
In this episode of On the Road With ADOT, host Doug Nintzel chats with David Blue, head of ADOT's Traffic Management Group and the person who oversees the TOC. Spent a few minutes with them and you'll come way with a much better idea of how a Traffic Operations Center operates.
