Predictive Priority for Light Rail Transit: From Concept to Implementation

Patrick Fuller, Arnab K Gupta

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

This paper discusses the development of a traffic control system for a new 32-km (20-mile) long Light Rail Transit (LRT) system to be constructed in an existing roadway network. The authors herein tell about the life-cycle of the development of a traffic control strategy to make transit travel time competitive without impacting on-street signal coordination beyond acceptable limits, the selection of hardware and software, and how they will help the client’s staff prepare for this major change in transportation.
