something that is expected to change dramatically as the concept of big data
is introduced. Indeed, the transportation profession is already moving in this
direction with the introduction of the transportation systems management and
operations (TSM&O) concept, which is intended to span the various activities.
For example, travel time reliability and service levels in public transportation
can be significantly impacted by the quality of traffic management. The prog-
ress made by a fixed-route transit bus is directly related to traffic congestion
and other traffic conditions. TSM&O offers the possibility of closer integration
between planning, design, building, operating, and maintaining transportation
systems. The implementation of big data will be an extremely valuable tool in
this integration and coordination.
