Session Title
Traffic Signal Performance Measures for Local Agencies
Track Title
Traffic Operations
Event Description/Abstract
Performance measures for traffic signals have been available for the past few years. These have been primarily engineering-related measures focused on improving operations along coordinated systems. Recently, performance measures have been adapted to concentrate on the day-to-day operations of traffic signals. This presentation will look at how a range of performance measures have been applied to both engineering and maintenance management roles at a local agency in Indiana. These include both previously developed measures, as well as new ones created to provide indicators of system health, equipment malfunctions, and intersections where timing improvements could be made.
