Engineering services firm 4089 Parsons has completed the implementation of its NETworks advanced transportation management system (ATMS) software in Mississauga, Canada and the system is now operational, allowing the city to actively monitor travel conditions, control traffic signals and share information with other regional transportation agencies.

Operating in Mississauga’s traffic management centre, Parsons’ ATMS software provides an intelligent signal control system for real-time management of the 769+ traffic signals within the city, including those under the jurisdiction of the Region of Peel, the Ministry of Transportation Ontario, Halton Region and the Greater Toronto Airport Authority.

Parsons also provided the new traffic video wall in the traffic management centre and will maintain the ATMS for the next five years.

The system also provides closed circuit television camera control, enables travel time notifications and other traveller information, provides incident detection and management capability and integrates automatic fleet vehicle location and asset management functionality.

    Opening the closed-loop to realise ITS benefits
    Jim Leslie, manager of ITS applications engineering at the Econolite Group looks at practical steps in transitioning from closed-loop masters to a centralised ATMS. Not many years ago the standard method of coordinating signalised intersections in local areas was to install an on-street master – each of which monitored and controlled a limited number of signal controllers or intersections as a closed-loop system. And, to a certain extent, each closed-loop system was autonomous from others deployed by the ag
