Design Plans
Iteris has extensive experience in the planning and design of traffic signal systems, ITS communication networks, and street lighting
infrastructure.Our work enhances safety, improves operational efficiency,extends the life of capital investments, and supports
multimodal operations including transit,emergency vehicles, pedestrians,and bicyclists.With a proven track record in the design of
thousands of signalized intersections across the country, Iteris delivers practical,cost-effective solutions rooted in our strong
understanding of traffic operations. In addition,our plan preparation services include signage plans,striping plans,and traffic
control plans.
We support all phases of project development,from system analysis and master planning to the preparation of Plans,Specifications,
and Estimates(PS&E), hardware selection, and field integration. Our familiarity with a wide range of signal controllers and central
systems allows us to recommend and implement technologies that align with the City's infrastructure, resources,and long-term
goals.We also provide thorough documentation,training, and post-implementation support to ensure system sustainability.
Program Management/Construction Management/ Construction Inspection
Iteris provides program management,construction management,and inspection services to support agency staff for successful
project delivery.We coordinate directly with local agencies and jurisdictions,Caltrans,utility providers,and contractors to ensure
projects are delivered on time,within budget,and in accordance with approved plans and specifications.Our team's expertise in ITS,
traffic engineering, and planning allows us to proactively identify and resolve construction challenges, minimizing delays and
ensuring ideal outcomes.
A recent example of our capabilities is the City of Cypress Citywide Traffic Signal Cabinet Upgrade project. Iteris currently manages
the full scope of construction inspection, including development of inspection checklists, pre-construction equipment verification,
stakeholder coordination, and post-construction inspection and recordkeeping. Upon project completion,the City will receive a fully
operational system along with comprehensive documentation detailing all installed improvements, ensuring long-term
maintainability and transparency.
Transportation Analysis
With over 25 years of experience, Iteris is a leader in travel demand modeling and multimodal forecasting.We have supported
agencies such as Southern California Association of Governments(SCAG),Anaheim Transportation Analysis Model (ATAM),Ventura
County Transportation Commission (VCTC), Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority(Metro),Orange County
Transportation Authority(OCTA), Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC),Western Riverside Council of Governments
WRCOG), and San Bernardino County Transportation Authority(SBCTA)in developing and applying regional and local models.These
models have been used to evaluate roadway widening, intersection improvements,traffic diversion, and multimodal planning that
includes pedestrian and bicycle travel. Iteris has delivered citywide models for General Plan Circulation Elements and corridor
studies for over 30 jurisdictions.We also developed and continue to maintain the ATAM model,which has supported numerous
development and infrastructure projects.
Traffic Signal Corridor Coordination Studies
Iteris has conducted numerous Before-and-After corridor coordination studies to evaluate Measures of Effectiveness(MOEs)for
RTSSP projects.These studies include travel time runs during peak periods to assess traffic flow,travel time,average speed,stops
per mile, and signal progression. Iteris has been conducting ongoing travel time runs for several RTSSP projects, including for the
Tustin-Rose RTSSP with the City of Orange.Additionally, Iteris developed side-by-side video comparisons of corridor performance
before and after signal timing adjustments for the City of Orange as part of the Tustin-Rose RTSSP project.These videos were
presented to the City Council to illustrate the impact of the improvements. Figures 2 and 3 on the following page show images from
the video prepared by Iteris. Figure 2 displays the side-by-side video comparison along with an aerial view to track overall corridor
progress. Figure 3 displays the difference in travel time, stops, and delay between the Before and After conditions.These visual tools
effectively demonstrated the benefits of the signal timing improvements and supported public communication efforts.
