Five cities in the south Denver, Colorado metropolitan area have now chosen 1763 Econolite Centracs ATMS as their advanced transportation management system to control networked actuated signalised intersections.

Greenwood Village and Centennial installed Centracs ATMS several years ago, and the successful deployment and resulting enhanced intelligent transportation system (ITS) capabilities led to the decision by Littleton, Englewood and Arapahoe County to have Centracs ATMS installed and operational by this summer.

Englewood and Littleton also plan to leverage the Centracs server-to-server module to take advantage of its cooperative operations and centre-to-centre communications capabilities, which enable adjoining Centracs-deployed cities to seamlessly share data and manage arterial traffic across agency boundaries.

All five cities are long-time Econolite traffic management customers. “We are pleased to continue helping the South Denver Metro cities meet their ITS goals,” said Econolite vice president of sales, Mark Nogaki. “These expanded deployments represent a complete picture of leading-edge technologies and comprehensive customer support helping agencies cost-effectively meet evolving transportation objectives.”

    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
