| Salem Keizer Plan
The Salem-Keizer Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Plan was collectively developed by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), the City of Salem, the City of Keizer, Marion County, Polk County, the Mid Willamette Valley Council of Governments (MWVCOG), the Willamette Valley Communication Center (WVCC) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The outcome is a 20-year deployment plan of ITS projects, which includes advanced technologies and management techniques, aimed to improve the safety and efficiency of the transportation system and to improve the driving experience for travelers in the Salem-Keizer Metropolitan Area. This effort is consistent with plans put together in other regions statewide to ensure that ITS strategies used are integrated and complementary.

| I-5 Optimization Plan
The I-5 Optimization Project identifies low cost, operational improvements to address safety and mobility over the next five years. The Interstate 5 (I-5) corridor between Salem and Albany experiences unreliable travel times, congestion, and delays caused primarily by non-recurring events. The ODOT internal project team evaluated strategies that could be implemented quickly with a relatively low cost to improve the corridor operations. Four system management strategies offer the greatest potential benefits and return on investment for the study corridor and are recommended for implementation: traffic surveillance, ramp metering, incident information signs, and variable speeds signs.
