TMC Operations Manual
The purpose of this project is to develop a technical reference that provides guidance and recommend practices to assist in initiating, developing, maintaining, and using TMC Operations Manuals. An operations manual documents the policies, procedures, plans, and other support activities that are performed to achieve the mission, goals, and objectives of the agencies program or TMC. The development and use of an operations manual will ensure the consistent, appropriate, and reliable responses to similar traffic situations, environmental considerations, incidents, and other types of special events.
