Jason Lund has been named president of traffic signal priority control company 542 Global Traffic Technologies (GTT), effective 1 June.


Lund, a Chicago-area native, brings nearly two decades of leadership experience to GTT, most recently in the compressed natural gas fueling industry. His hiring follows the retirement of Doug Roberts, who served as GTT’s president following the company’s divestiture from 4080 3M in 2007 through its eventual sale to Gilbarco, a Fortive company last year. Roberts will continue with GTT through June as he transitions leadership to Lund.

Lund said he welcomed the challenges and opportunities of leading GTT while it continues to grow as the market leader of traffic signal priority control solutions in North America and around the world.
