Traffic Signal Performance Measurement: Case Study of McDowell Rd.

PM: Simon Ramos, P.E.

To enhance the operations of traffic signal timing and improve the corridor progression and coordination, the City of Phoenix is implementing emerging technologies field pilots. As one of the emerging technologies, Rhythm Engineering is implementing its Timing Optimization System for a pilot study on one corridor in the City of Phoenix. The City of Phoenix has teamed up with the University of Arizona (UArizona) to evaluate the operational effectiveness of the Timing Optimization System by Rhythm Engineering in terms of intersection and corridor performance evaluation. Below is the detailed scope of this project.
