Traffic adaptive signal control fiber optic

The Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration awarded a $2.69 million Formula Grant to the Virginia Department of Transportation on February 23, 2022 under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205). The grant funding will support preliminary engineering design to integrate adaptive traffic signal control technology with real-time tracking of wireless device movement through Alexandria's transportation network. This will build upon the city's existing adaptive traffic signal control project through software development and integration with other technologies. A sub-award of $2.69 million was provided to the City of Alexandria to deliver the products and services under the grant, including further development and implementation of adaptive traffic signal control technology to optimize traffic flow using real-time wireless device data.
