Multimodal Detection Systems
Over the next year the Transportation and Streets department will install approximately 75 multimodal detection systems at high-volume intersections throughout the city. The emerging technology helps traffic engineers adjust signal timing to accommodate multimodal transportation at intersections, improving overall safety and reducing delays for vehicles. The first series of detection systems are being deployed adjacent to high school campuses where bike, pedestrian and micro mobility activity increases 997% during the school year. The ‘smart’ technology looks for trends and can automatically extend crossing times during peak hours.
