Traffic Signal Systems Operations and Management

The objective of this project is to develop a network of transportation agencies to: (i) develop consensus on operational standards of performance; (ii) define a central management model that can leverage commercial wireless IP offerings that can be competitively outsourced; and (iii) management principles for using a central system to identify when and where resources are most needed to maximize return on investment. The level of participation and associated funding commitments will allow for additional opportunities over time or in parallel to explore additional traffic signal initiatives beyond those described herein. For example, the evaluation of adaptive control field deployments and associated systems engineering guidance documents under development by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
