Session Title
How to Implement a Transit Signal Priority Project and Use Vehicle Probe Trajectory Data in Signal Design
Track Title
Traffic Operations
Event Description/Abstract
In 2016, the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) deployed Transit Signal Priority (TSP) at 195 intersections in highly urbanized areas of Washington, DC. In collaboration with a broader regional implementation, and in partnership with the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), DDOT set out to apply a systems engineering–driven process to identify, design, test, and accept a large-scale TSP system. This presentation will highlight project successes and lessons learned.
