This initiative will identify gaps and develop a strategic investment plan to advance the state of good repair, safety and operations at traffic signals, primarily within county and municipal jurisdiction, throughout the NJTPA region. This effort will include policy analysis of the current transportation system and associated policies through the lenses of key regional planning goals, including but not limited to safety, complete street/multi-modal accommodation, equity, environmental justice, air quality, safe routes to schools and overall mobility.
As a component of a traffic signal investment strategy, this effort will identify a prioritization or network screening methodology, inclusive of identification if required data elements. Further, recommendations on cost-effective ways to fill identified data gaps, in order to develop a regional local traffic signal asset management system.
