• Abstract:
  The Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) is responsible for the operation and maintenance of 1,200 traffic signals. To explore the benefit, value, and cost associated with implementation of an automated traffic signal performance measures (ATSPM) system, PBOT initiated a pilot project at five intersections spread across the city. In the future, PBOT will expand the ATSPM system with detection at 30 additional signals along three identified corridors. Moving forward, PBOT has developed a prioritized list of intersections for the roll-out of controller upgrades and ATSPM installation in addition to the identified corridors. PBOT has also set the goal of developing a dashboard tool to combine ATSPM data with other data sources to improve operations and assist decisionmaking. While the ATSPM system in Portland is still in its infancy, there are ambitious plans for growth.
