 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE
BUSINESS LUNCHEON |
The meeting will include a tour of the recently opened Regional Transportation Management Center (RTMC), a state-of-the art facility that houses employees from the Florida Highway Patrol, Florida Department of Transportation, and others whose main objective is to work towards safe and efficient travel in the Northeast Florida area. This is the first Transportation Management Center in Florida to co-locate staff across agencies. The RTMC was funded by the North Florida TPO as part of their ongoing investment in Intelligent Transportation Systems which totals over $30 million since 2003.
The 20,000-square foot RTMC facility has the latest technology in monitoring and responding to incidents on our highways to provide a safe transportation system. The building itself is capable of withstanding a Category 3 hurricane and sustaining itself for seven days through a power outage. The south wall is comprised of bullet proof windows per FHP requirements, who provide dispatching for 10 state law enforcement agencies in 18 counties in the North Florida area. It's the first facility in Florida to be interconnected to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) for combined response to Homeland Security threats.
