Transit/ Traffic Signal System Upgrade

completed

Traffic signal coordination is established along arterial roads to allow vehicles to pass through multiple consecutive traffic signals safely and with a minimal amount of stops for red signals. This system is outdated, and upgrading improves timing and safety for Guelph’s Transit Service. Active Transit Signal Priority (TSP) techniques rely on detecting transit vehicles as they approach an intersection and adjusting the signal timing dynamically to improve service for the transit vehicle.
