Abstract:

For Utah Department of Transportation (Utah DOT) ideas brought back from the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Annual Meeting have resulted in savings from increased operational efficiency, safety improvements, and more. Data on the implementation of more than 200 innovative ideas at Utah DOT since 2003 have shown more than $180 million in savings. After learning about automated traffic signal performance (ATSPM) measures at the 2012 TRB Annual Meeting, Utah DOT partnered with Purdue and Indiana DOT to implement ATSPM. A cost–benefit analysis of ATSPM in Utah showed a user-cost savings of more than $3 million from reduced delays at traffic signals.
