Kansas City Scout's Traffic Incident Management (TIM) Program coordinates the resources
of public agencies and private sector partners to detect, respond to, and remove
traffic incidents in a way that gets traffic moving again as safety and quickly
as possible. The TIM Program is a tool that:
- Creates a communications network for incident responders.
- Coordinates the activities of responding agencies to address their needs and priorities
while maintaining safety for on-scene responders, incident victims, and passing
travelers.
- Creates and designates responder roles with clear cut responsibilities and procedures.
