Project Description
The traffic Signal Timing project is a collaborative partnership between the RTC, Cities of Reno and Sparks, and the UNR Center for Advanced Transportation Education and Research. The goal of the project is to continue the re-timing of 1/3 of the signals each year and to expand signal timing plans to include weekends, holidays and special event plans, if possible. The schedule of work for a typical corridor consists of the following:
- Collect traffic and signal data
- Input timings into model and evaluate existing signal timing
- Develop new timing and implement in the field
- Fine-tune timing, and conducting before-after studies
This project will provide signal re-timing engineering services for a 3-year cycle beginning in July, 2023, and concluding in June 2026.
