LOCAL INTERSECTION PROGRAM. USERS MANUAL AND SOFTWARE DOCUMENTATION

This manual describes a LOCAL INTERSECTION CONTROL PROGRAM developed by the State of California Department of Transportation for the Type 170 Traffic Signal Controller System. The manual presents operational features, general information on the control program, narrative description of the control routines, flow charts and a program listing. The program is designed to accomodate most typical intersection control strategies. It is designed for stand alone isolated operation. Its design allows it to be interfaced to a separate co-ordination program for use in interconnected traffic signal systems. The program is designed to operate in and with the California and New York TYPE 170 TRAFFIC SIGMAL CONTROLLER SYSTEM as described in the HARDWARE SPECIFICATION (FHWA-IP-78-16 dated September 1978) in the model 332 and 336 cabinets. It is not designed for use in other controller systems or cabinets. (Author)
