TM03-Cities Traffic Signal Control

Status: Existing

Description

This service package for surface street control provides the central control and monitoring equipment, communication links, and the signal control equipment that support local surface street control and/or arterial traffic management. A range of traffic signal control systems are represented by this service package ranging from fixed–schedule control systems to fully traffic responsive systems that dynamically adjust control plans and strategies based on current traffic conditions and priority requests. This service package is generally an intra–jurisdictional package that does not rely on real–time communications between separate control systems to achieve area–wide traffic signal coordination. Systems that achieve coordination across jurisdictions by using a common time base or other strategies that do not require real time coordination would be represented by this package. This service package is consistent with typical urban traffic signal control systems.
