Multimodal Intelligent Traffic Signal Systems Engineering

completed

This project aims to conduct the foundational analysis and design necessary to prepare for the development and field testing/demonstration of multimodal intelligent traffic signal systems (MMITSS), which is defined as a comprehensive traffic signal system taking advantage of the connected vehicle environment for multiple transportation modes, including general passenger vehicles, transit, emergency vehicles, freight vehicles, and pedestrians. The MMITSS incorporates, at a minimum, the following arterial traffic signal applications identified by the dynamic mobility application (DMA) program of the U.S. Department of Transportation: intelligent traffic signal system, transit signal priority, mobile accessible pedestrian signal system, emergency vehicle preemption, and freight signal priority.
