STRATEGIC OUTCOME:

Approving this change order meets the desired outcome of Safe and Prosperous and Respected and Responsible by optimizing signal timing, lower pollution, revenue loss, and traffic accidents. It also meets the Connected and Engaged desired outcome by evaluating real-time traffic conditions and optimizing traffic based on the ever-variable roadway conditions (e.g. construction, time of year, accidents, etc.).

 

REPORT:

Recently, the City of Yuma developed an Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Strategic Plan, ITS Infrastructure Plan, and Transportation Management Center (TMC) Concept of Operations. The City is expanding the integration from 35 intersections to 45 intersections further increasing the connectivity throughout the City for system service and supply communication equipment. 

The additional intersections included in the integration would be continuing the 4th Avenue Corridor around the Big Curve from 32nd and Catalina to 32nd and Pacific Avenue; extending the 24th Street corridor from 24th and Arizona to 24th and Pacific Avenue; creating an Avenue C corridor from 24th to 16th Street; and various signals at Avenue 8E and 32nd Street as well as Avenue 7E and 32nd Street to assist in traffic problems at these intersections.

The ATMS software allows the Traffic Engineer and Technicians to view live traffic, ability to upload signal timings remotely, receive data analytics (road user classifications, volumes, turning movements, speeds, and signal performance metrics), and produce performance-based traffic signal timings. 

The City of Yuma has the largest number of traffic signals and other traffic management equipment within the Yuma region but does not have the ability to monitor or actively operate its network remotely. There could be significant safety, efficiency, and public relations benefits when the City staff has the ability to monitor and operate traffic signals on the busiest corridors in real-time from a centralized location.
