Objective Category
Arterial Management: Traffic Signal Management

These objectives improve the management of traffic signal systems through advanced technology, increased reviews, and planning.

Associated Objectives and Performance Measures

Objective Performance Measure
Maintain a program of evaluating X percent of signals for retiming every Y years. Number of traffic signals evaluated for retiming.
Increase the number of intersections running in a coordinated, closed-loop, or adaptive system by X percent in Y years. Number of intersections running in a coordinated, closed-loop, or adaptive system.
Special timing plans are available for use during freeway incidents, roadway construction activities, or other special events for X miles of arterials in the region by year Y. Number of miles of arterials that have at least one special timing plan for incidents, construction, or events.
Crash data for all arterials in the region is reviewed every X years to determine if signal adjustments can be made to address a safety issue. Number of years between reviews of crash data on all arterials for possible signal timing impacts.

Since the mapping between objectives and service packages is not always straight-forward and often situation-dependent, these mappings should only be used as a starting point. Users should do their own analysis to identify the best service packages for their region.
