Abstract:This is one of a series of documents providing support for deploying Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). This document focuses on traffic signal control, a component of ITS. It aims to provide practical help for the traffic engineering community with deploying traffic signal control systems in an integrated, multimodal environment using the National ITS Architecture. ITS is the application of management strategies and technologies to increase the efficiency and safety of national, regional, and local surface transportation systems. This document covers the basics of traffic signal control ITS applications, the role of National ITS Architecture can play in traffic signal control system project development, the development process for a regional architecture, some challenges faced by traffic management agencies, and some best practices and lessons learned for developing and deploying of advanced traffic signal control systems. The regional architecture will indicate how current and future systems in the region may be integrated to obtain the added benefits available through integration of these systems.
