  1. Make Way: Prioritizing Bus Signaling to Simplify Urban Transportation www.emtracsystems.com

  2. According to a study, public transportation can cost between $1.5 million and $1.9 billion a year, depending on the size of the city. Passengers now do not need to purchase another additional vehicle, which can help save approximately $11,000 a year. Public transportation options increase the need for potential workers, and commutes tend to be shorter in many major cities. Buses help cities meet their environmental goals by discharging less nitrogen oxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrocarbons. The problem is that public transportation could become more reliable. After a survey, many commuters said they had reduced their use of public transportation due to unreliability. www.emtracsystems.com

  3. Bus signal priority can help improve the reliability of public transportation systems and ultimately increase ridership and the benefits that public transportation promises. Bus Signal Priority Systems: Priority, preemption, and technologies allow traffic infrastructure to connect directly to buses without impacting other vehicles. For example, it is best to reduce cycle times each time, and smart intersections can be formed to reduce cycle times only when a bus arrives, controlling negative impacts on passing traffic www.emtracsystems.com

  4. There are different ways priority can help improve traffic signals: • Extending green light. • Ending stage(s) prematurely. • Skipping certain stages. www.emtracsystems.com

  5. Many priority and preemption systems need a conditional parameter that depends on the bus schedule, occupancy, street traffic conditions, and time between successive priorities. For example, a bus that arrives on time or carries very few passengers will not need priority at the next traffic light. These situations can further improve overall system efficiency. Public transit has the potential to create decent value for the cities it invests in. Applied intelligence offers cost-effective forecasting techniques for cities of all sizes to realize these advantages. www.emtracsystems.com

  6. Conclusion: Emtrac systems offer the best Bus Signal Priority (BSP) system that helps time traffic and ultimately reduces the time a transit vehicle spends waiting at a red light. www.emtracsystems.com
