Abstract:The City of White Plains, NY owns and operates an advanced traffic control system (TCS) that monitors ; and controls over 130 intersections in real time. Its Traffic Department facility is not staffed 24 hours a ; day, 7 days a week, but two other centers operate 24/7: the City of White Plains Police Department ; (CWPPD) and the Hudson Valley Transportation Management Center (HVTMC) in Hawthorne, NY. This ; traffic management center (TMC) is operated by New York State Department of Transportation ; (NYSDOT) Region 8, which includes Westchester County and six other counties north of New York City. ; It monitors, collects, and sends real-time traffic information for responding to roadway incidents and ; taking action to minimize disruptions to travelers. ; The objective of this project was to provide NYSDOT Region 8 and the CWPPD with real-time data on ; roadway arterials available from City of White Plains’ TCS. Although the city’s traffic signals are currently ; not monitored during nights and weekends, they would be operated and controlled from the HVTMC. All ; intersection controllers are monitored once-per-second in real-time, and multiple control strategies can be ; applied. Intersections can operate in multiple control modes including central time-of-day (CTOD), local ; time-of-day (LTOD), free, manual, and traffic-responsive (TR). As a result of this project, the agencies will ; be able to coordinate in managing incidents and monitoring the City of White Plains’ signals at all times.
