Traffic Signal Systems 2009

These 23 records address the following aspects of traffic signal systems: green time at congested traffic signals; traffic signal maintenance and operations needs; railroad-preempted intersections; three dimensional mapping of inductive loop detector sensitivity; cycle length performance measures; bus priority strategies on arterials controlled by SCOOT; tolerances for magnetometer orientation and field calibration procedure; optimization of coordinated-actuated traffic signal system; bicyclist intersection crossing times; left-turn signal control; optimizing traffic control to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions; optimizing signal timings from the field; platoon-priority and advance warning flasher system at high-speed intersections; prediction of red light running; microscopic modeling of traffic signal operations; lost time and cycle length for an actuated traffic signal; specifying vehicle detection performance; local synchronization control scheme for congested interchange areas; distributed Ethernet network of advanced pedestrian signals; comparison of before-after versus off-on adaptive traffic control evaluations; generating traffic scenarios for large arterial networks; evaluating green-extension policies; and safety evaluation for intergreen intervals at signalized intersections.
