TM04: Connected Vehicle Traffic Signal System: City of Knoxville

Need Area Description

This service package uses both vehicle location and movement information from connected vehicles as well as infrastructure measurement of non–equipped vehicles to improve the operations of traffic signal control systems. The service package utilizes the vehicle information to adjust signal timing for an intersection or group of intersections in order to improve traffic flow, including allowing platoon flow through the intersection.
