Abstract:The purpose of this research was to determine if data collected from an advanced arterial signal control system could be used to generate information that would be useful for transportation engineering analysis other than signal optimization and control. This research also looked at some of the technical challenges and limitations to using data collected by an arterial signal control system and presents an analysis of the validity of the data. The premise investigated is that data from signal control system surveillance equipment can be used to calculate daily volume counts for a roadway segment. This premise was tested by screening and aggregating data from signal system data collection equipment and comparing it with data from traffic monitoring equipment located in close proximity to the intersections being analyzed.
