Spotlight Talks: Smarter Signals- Deploying Advanced Multimodal Signal Timing Strategies

Watch for an in-depth webinar exploring how advanced signal timing strategies can be tested and evaluated using software-in-the-loop simulation with PTV Vissim. In this session, Sam Boso of Whitman, Requardt & Associates will present a real-world corridor study in Pittsburgh that examined how multimodal signal timing treatments impact vehicles, transit, and pedestrians along a busy university corridor. You’ll learn how simulation techniques can: -Evaluate advanced signal strategies such as passive pedestrian detection, transit signal priority, and dynamic pedestrian phases. -Integrate external signal controller emulation to replicate real-world signal operations within a microsimulation environment. -Measure operational trade-offs between pedestrian safety treatments and corridor mobility across multiple time periods.
