Simulation and Real-World Testing Tested a Red Light Running Warning System and Estimated It Can Potential Prevent About 7,700 Crashes Annually in Minnesota.
METHODOLOGY
This study developed a microsimulation testbed to validate RLRWS at a selected intersection, modifying the control logic in the model to allow target vehicles to run red lights. The RLRWS…

Minneapolis Active Traffic Management System Using Intelligent Lane Control Signals Resulted in a 22 Percent Decrease in Crashes and 54 Percent Decrease in Near Crashes.
METHODOLOGY
The first system was tested in the field for three weeks in 2016, showing the queue warning message “SLOW TRAFFIC AHEAD” to travelers when a queue was estimated at downstream locations.…

Estimated Cost for Implementing Max-Pressure Adaptive Signal Control on 3,280 Intersections in the Twin Cities Metro Area in Minnesota was $69,961,900.
To implement the max-pressure signal timing technology, additional loop detectors would be needed to determine queue lengths at the signalized intersections. In addition to loop detectors, another…
