TR-T0252 PTV Vissim - Transit Signal Priority and Preemption (US)

Short Description

In this four-hour course you will learn and apply the principles of a Ring-Barrier Controllers Transit Signal Priority and Preemption methods; learning how to place the necessary network objects (detectors and signal heads) as well as how to program the logic into an existing PTV Vissim network.
Transit Signal Priority (TSP) provides additional green timing within a cycle to a specific phase when activated to reduce delay for that movement if the conditions are right.
Preemption shuts down an intersection to allow a specific movement to traverse the intersection unimpeded.
