Georgia Department of Transportation (GDoT)’s Office of Traffic Operations plans to award five contracts related to traffic signal operations this year. 

To give potential proposers an understanding of the contract needs, it will hold a virtual information session on 27 May at 1pm local time using Microsoft Teams.

GDoT staff will describe the full programme, including details of goals and proposed schedule, and will answer questions.

Three of the contracts will be for the Metro Atlanta area, with two state-wide traffic signal operations support programmes also on the table.
