Abstract:The study was designed to determine the change in travel time following the implementation of the Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS) in Oakland County, Michigan. A before/after comparison was used to examine the change in travel time on a specific corridor (Orchard Lake Road). The results of the study showed that corridor travel-time and intersection delay for the main street through traffic improved as a result of SCATS implementation. The corridor travel-time improved for both directions for both the peak and the non-peak periods. The reduction in corridor travel time ranged from 6.56% to 31.80%, with savings in travel time being higher during the non-peak periods.
