Co-ordinated adaptive traffic light control is a getting a lot of attention on the World Congress exhibition floor, according to 139 TransCore which is displaying the SCATS system.

“The system recalculates and implements the optimal light timing every cycle, so traffic controllers don’t have to set up a number of pre-defined scenarios – it does it all itself,” said TransCore’s Travis White.

If congestion stretches several blocks then all the lights on the system will be co-ordinated to deal with the backlog and during quiet times the green periods are reduced so that pedestrians are not kept waiting unnecessarily.
