ITS Element: Local Traffic Detectors

Send Your Comments
Description: Traffic detectors describe the computerized field control systems located at signalized intersections that run the red-yellow-green lights on traffic signal systems. Most jurisdictions and ODOT use both video and vehicle detection to help with real-time signal timing once their entire signal system has been upgraded. This element also includes local traffic controllers.
