Description

SCOOT operates as an advanced proactive system that modifies traffic signal settings in real-time to accommodate vehicles approaching intersections. In contrast, alternative systems rely on data from departing traffic, which results in timing changes that are often implemented too late to achieve optimal effectiveness. At the core of SCOOT lies an online traffic simulation model that evaluates a variety of potential timing adjustments in real-time, selecting the most efficient option. Other systems typically make modifications based on set parameter thresholds, such as traffic volumes or the number of arrivals on green, which restricts them to a single potential adjustment without prior effectiveness testing. SCOOT, on the other hand, consistently optimizes cycle length, splits, and offsets with each cycle by executing small, controlled modifications. Many alternative systems opt for larger adjustments on a much longer schedule, sometimes up to every 10 minutes, and some do not even optimize cycle length at all. Consequently, these other systems are significantly less adept at responding to the rapidly fluctuating conditions of traffic. This responsiveness makes SCOOT particularly advantageous in urban environments with dynamic traffic patterns.

Description

The SynchroGreen® adaptive traffic control system enhances signal timings for main roads, side streets, and pedestrians through its real-time adaptive capabilities. Developed by Trafficware, this proven solution aims to minimize travel times, delays, and stops for drivers. By maximizing existing roadway capacity, SynchroGreen also contributes to lower fuel consumption and reduced idle times, which leads to fewer emissions. This innovative system was meticulously crafted by Trafficware in collaboration with Naztec, both of which bring extensive expertise from years in the traffic management field. Traffic engineers worldwide utilize Trafficware’s Synchro Studio for effective traffic simulation and optimization. Additionally, the Naztec ATMS.now central management software is currently employed by 200 cities across the United States, overseeing the management of thousands of intersections. This combined wealth of knowledge and experience forms a solid foundation to effectively tackle the complexities involved in optimizing traffic signal functions, ensuring smoother flow and improved safety for all road users. As urban areas continue to grow, the need for such advanced traffic solutions becomes increasingly critical.
