Status:

Existing

Description:

210 signals and 30 flashers, 9 closed loop systems encompassing 180 signals - 3 manufacturers. Predominantly time of day control, plan to be adaptive after major conversion to central based software that will monitor and communicate with one central computer. Sound pre-emption used for emergency vehicles in some locations, plans for at least 180 signals to be equipped with sound pre-emption after improvements. Several signals within 200 feet of a railroad crossing, some coordination with signals. System loops collect volume, speed, and classification data for the city, but the data is not shared with the public or other agencies on a real-time basis.
