Arterial Management ProgramWhat's NewThe FHWA Model Systems Engineering Documents for Adaptive Signal Control Technology (ASCT) Systems was developed to support the Every Day Counts Adaptive Signal Control Technology Initiative. This interim version of the document provides agency professionals with understanding and tools to inform suppliers about what they need and expect from adaptive control by facilitating the alignment of agency objectives, needs and requirements. The goal of the FHWA Every Day Counts ASCT is to mainstream the use of ASCT where traffic conditions and agency resources support and can sustain implementation. To learn more about this EDC initiative, contact your local FHWA Division Office or email eddie.curtis@dot.gov. To discuss the document or leave feedback to help us improve subsequent versions, please visit the National Transportation Operations Coalition (NTOC) Traffic Signal Library and User Forum. Arterial roadways are a crucial link in the national transportation system that provide regional mobility and access to land use that is vital to our economy and quality of life. Arterials account for more than one million lane miles of roadway, connecting local and collector roads to the national highway systems. Over 3000 State and local agencies are responsible for the management and operation of the estimated 311,000 traffic signals that are spread across urban, suburban and rural communities throughout the United States. The objective of the Arterial Management Program is to advance management practices and operations strategies that promote the safe and efficient use of arterial roadway capacity to reduce congestion.
