Toronto: 83% of its signals are controlled by the Main Traffic Signal System (MTSS). 15% also use the SCOOT (Split Cycle and Offset Optimization Technique), an adaptive signal control system. [22] Sydney: 3,400 traffic signals co-ordinated by the Sydney Co-ordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS). Designed and developed by RTA, the system was ...
InSync adaptive traffic control system is a real-time adaptive traffic control system that enables traffic signals to immediately adapt to traffic demand. MASSTR (Meadowlands Adaptive Signal System for Traffic Reduction) located in the Meadowlands Region of northern New Jersey will incorporate over 128 signals when complete. As of June 2013 ...

This three-arm signal controlled junction has three vehicle phases (A, B and C) and a pedestrian phase (D). The phases operate together in three stages (1, 2 and 3). Moving phases are shown in green and stopped phases are shown in red. Phases are indications shown to traffic on traffic signal aspects (a single light on a signal head). For ...
The above method is primitive real-time signal optimization at best. This method will optimize one traffic signal at a time. However, in the real world, a motorist's commute involves driving through multiple signals. Thus, multiple traffic signals need to be collectively synchronized in order to be effective.
The vehicle code states that when two drivers approach an intersection at the same time and the traffic signals are not working, the driver of the vehicle on the left must yield to the driver on ...
Coordinated signal system. For places where adjacent traffic control signals do not keep traffic grouped together efficiently. Crash experience. The volumes in the eight- and four-hour warrants may be reduced if five or more right-angle and cross traffic turn collisions have happened at the intersection in a twelve-month period. Roadway network.
