ARTIMIS is Greater Cincinnati's interstate information service. Current highway conditions are available 24/7 locally by dialling "511". For out-of-town drivers or "511"-disabled phone systems, one can call 513-333-3333.
ARTIMIS - The Advanced Regional Traffic Interactive Management & Information System provides incident, congestion, and freeway management for the Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky Region. The project is funded by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) to improve traffic conditions and safety along 88 miles of the region's highways.
As our nation's freeways become more congested, transportation officials are looking at new technologies that can help ease the burden on highways and lessen the frustrations of motorists. Emerging from this search are new methods of traffic technology, collectively known as Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).
ARTIMIS is the first major ITS effort in Ohio and the second in Kentucky. This site will continuously be updated. We hope the information contained here is informative and that you'll visit us often.
