Abstract:

Numerous projects sponsored by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) have developed strategies to improve signal operations and safety at isolated signalized intersections. These strategies include Detection Control System (DC-S), Platoon Identification Algorithm (PIA), and Advance Warning of End of Green System (AWEGS). These projects have shown significant potential to TxDOT for improving safety while maintaining efficient signal operations. TxDOT has started implementing some of these strategies at various locations.
