The city of La Habra in Orange County, California, has awarded Iteris a contract for a regional traffic signal synchronisation project focused on the Euclid Street corridor. 

The five-year, $1.3 million agreement, is led by La Habra but will also include Caltrans and the surrounding cities of Fullerton, Anaheim, Garden Grove, Santa Ana and Fountain Valley.

Funded by the Orange County Transit Authority’s Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program (RTSSP), it will involve 136 intersections and six agencies.

Iteris will provide signal timing design, communication design, construction support, integration, operations and maintenance and will use its ClearGuide Software as a Service (SaaS) solution to improve mobility throughout the corridor. 

ClearGuide allows traffic operators to remotely monitor arterial travel times and reliability, identifying congestion hotspots and prioritising retiming efforts. 

Steven Bradley, regional vice president, mobility professional services at Iteris, says: “This initiative represents the continued expansion of Iteris’ managed services and SaaS solutions across the West Coast, and will ultimately help to increase the value, effectiveness and resilience of the corridor’s existing transportation infrastructure.”
