Iteris wins $4.7m traffic signal contract from Orange County Transportation Authority
Iteris, a global leader in smart mobility infrastructure management, has announced that it has executed the final contract and received the formal notice to proceed for a $4.7 million initiative with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for a regional traffic signal synchronization project.
The three-year project includes signal coordination and timing improvements, with the aim of improving traffic flow, enhancing public safety and decreasing stops.
Under the project agreement, Iteris will provide services that will upgrade traffic signal electronics and communications equipment, and optimize signal timing along Katella Avenue, a major east-west corridor that comprises key signalized intersections spanning eight cities โ Anaheim, Orange, Garden Grove, Villa Park, Cypress, Los Alamitos, Stanton and County of Orange โ in Orange County, California.
On January 7, 2020, Iterisย announcedย that it had been awarded a $3.6 million contract to perform the same services across Orange Countyโs Main Street corridor.
Iterisโย Intersection-as-a-Service™ย end-to-end solution offering, a component of theย ClearMobility™ Platform, will deliver proactive monitoring of traffic signal operations at all project intersections. The primary goal of this project is to deploy new intelligent transportation system (ITS) equipment and communication infrastructure to support the management of the citiesโ transportation network, implement optimized coordination timing plans to achieve optimal traffic flow, and improve safety for all road users, including vehicles, buses, bicycles and pedestrians.
โWe are proud to support OCTAโs goal of improving the safety and mobility of road users by embarking on this traffic signal synchronization project,โ said Scott Carlson, vice president and assistant general manager, Transportation Systems at Iteris. โThis initiative represents the continued expansion of Iterisโ traffic signal coordination services, as well as our Intersection-as-a-Service offering, across the west coast and will ultimately help to increase the value and effectiveness of the regionโs existing transportation infrastructure, while also improving air quality and reducing fuel consumption.โ
Iteris expects to commence the traffic signal coordination and ITS design project immediately.
The ClearMobility Platform is the worldโs most complete solution to continuously monitor, visualize and optimize mobility infrastructure. ClearMobility applies cloud computing, artificial intelligence, advanced sensors, advisory services and managed services to help ensure roads are safe, travel is efficient, and communities thrive.
