New Stop Lights and Traffic Jams: Make More traffic flow Faster Though Grand Terrace: GREAT OPTION:
The construction work, which will take about eight months, involves installing fiber-optic cables alongside roads. At one intersection, Barton Road in Grand Terrace, workers will install a new traffic signal.
The traffic-signal coordination is expected to reduce travel time by 12 to 15 percent, Donahue said. It should improve fuel economy, decrease pollution and reduce the number of rear-end collisions, she said.
The project is funded by federal grants from the Congestion Mitigation Air Quality program.
The software installed at the intersections will tie in with cities that already have traffic-synchronization programs in place, such as San Bernardino. Robert Eisenbeisz, senior civil engineer for the city, said his office is 90 percent finished installing its software in 16 major corridors and is troubleshooting the equipment.
"We're gearing ours up so when (the SANBAG project) happens, it will go at the same time," he said.
SANBAG also has plans for two more phases on smaller streets, covering about 550 intersections, Donahue said. A start date and budget for those phases have not yet been determined, she said.
Here is an Idea. How about affordable houses NEAR Reasonable Paying JOBS. Cut the Commute time back and forth. No that won't work, Your children may see their parents eat dinner... and you know we can't have that.
