District Five Traffic Incident Management
The FDOT District Five (5) Traffic Incident Management (TIM) Program serves as a collaborative team for agencies and response partners to improve coordination, enhance responder safety, and support effective incident management across the region. The program uses in-person TIM meetings, training opportunities, and post-incident reviews to share important updates, identify lessons learned, and promote consistent operational practices.
