Iteris has been approved by the City of Anaheim in California to implement its managed services as part of an existing contract for a regional smart mobility, safety and sustainability project with its ClearMobility platform.

The company says this represents a shift from historically manual corridor performance monitoring and management operations to cloud-enabled managed services and Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions.

Scott Carlson, general manager and 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 region’s existing transportation infrastructure, while also improving air quality and reducing fuel consumption.”

Anaheim is using Iteris' congestion management service for arterials and asset management service for intersections to augment the city’s traffic management and asset management operations on an ongoing basis.

The congestion management service for arterials bundles Iteris’ expertise and resources with the arterial performance measures features of Iteris’ ClearGuide SaaS-based mobility intelligence solution.

Traffic operators can remotely monitor arterial travel times and reliability, prioritise retiming efforts, identify congestion hotspots, and characterise how highway traffic impacts surrounding arterials.

Iteris’ asset management SaaS solution, ClearAsset, allows the city to track and maintain the inventory and condition of technology equipment deployed in the field and to monitor its performance over time.

San Bernardino County Transportation Authority, Georgia Department of Transportation, City of Lake Forest, Pulice-FNF-Flatiron Joint Venture and OC 405 Partners Joint Venture already use Iteris’ managed services to augment their traffic management and asset management operations.
