Traffic Light Phasing To Achieve Traffic Flow Efficiencies in Auckland Transport and their Economic Benefits

Authors : Ken Lee-Jones, Andrew Allen

Abstract : This paper provides a brief overview of how the traffic signals are managed and how their efficiency is monitored, adjusted, improved and what further measures are being implemented to gain efficiencies from the traffic lights. The economic efficiencies of achieving optimisation are measured through the regional optimisation programme. The regional route optimisation programme is a key link between planning, infrastructure development and operational management to achieve network efficiency. This paper provides information on how traffic signals are being operated and what is being done to make them more efficient. Traffic signal operation and the regional route optimisation programme are relevant to the strategic goal of increasing efficiency on the transport network.
