With Opticom CMS, traffic management personnel monitor, manage and maintain intersection activity remotely to improve service levels, maximize resources and expedite emergency response.
Liberty Township installed Opticom™ Radio signal priority control technology at every intersection in Liberty Township and the City of Powell as well as on 18 authorized response vehicles. Initial tests indicated that both the fire department and EMS reduced response times by at least 40 percent.
Highland, IN was awarded a grant for Opticom™ Multimode priority control technology. About 35 intersections and 50 vehicles — including police cars, fire department vehicles and ambulances — are connected to the system. The versatile system helps first responders reach emergency scenes more quickly.
Tight turns and obstructions compromised traffic signal preemption, where first responders had to reduce speeds significantly to navigate around cars and pass through the intersections, effecting response times.
Brookhaven is now one of hundreds of communities that have made the switch to Opticom Radio preemption. Read more about their migration in this case study.
Nearly 70 percent of fatal vehicle collisions in Minnesota, as well as other states, occur on roads in rural communities, where higher speeds, varying terrain and inconsistent sightlines can put many drivers in danger. The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) is working toward making rural roads safer by using a Canoga™ Traffic Sensing solution to warn at-risk drivers when cross traffic is approaching.
The East San Francisco Bay Area’s SMART Corridors program is changing the way that drivers think about buses.
Las Vegas Boulevard upgrades from Opticom IR to Opticom GPS, and help their drivers, by giving the public more time to move forward and get out of the way of the emergency responders.
