ITS Progress Reports
This section provides an update on recently completed or on-going ITS projects along the major intrastate facilities in Florida.
Advanced Traffic Management Systems
Sarasota Signal Retiming Project (197978
1 32 01)
This project is retiming 99 signalized intersections that are currently
part of either the City of Sarasota or Sarasota County's existing closed
loop system. All of the work is complete. The delivery of the Final
Timing Report is scheduled for March 2002.
Approx. Completion: March 2002

Sarasota-Manatee Traffic Signal Systems Alternatives
Analysis (202079 1 12 01)
This project provided cost-benefit information associated with the traffic
signal systems in the Sarasota/Manatee area for the following alternatives:
| • | Maintain existing systems at full operational capabilities |
| • | Upgrade existing systems to closed loop or centralized hybrid systems |
| • | Upgrade to an advanced traffic management system with regional traffic management |
| center, real-time traffic monitoring, and video surveillance. |
The Final Report is complete. A presentation to the
MPO will be made before the end of March 2002.
Approx. Completion: March 2002

City of Naples/Collier County Advanced Transportation
Management System (ATMS), Design Group I, Construction (195403 1 52
01)
This project is constructing a hybrid traffic control system utilizing
fiber optic cable for communications to 77 intersections. This is the
first of two projects that are scheduled to construct the ATMS. This
project will build the control centers for the city and county and communicate
with 77 intersections. Construction began in May 2001 and is continuing
on-schedule.
Approx. Completion: September 2002

City of Punta Gorda/Charlotte County Advanced Transportation
Management System, Design Group I, Construction (193821 1 52 01)
This project is constructing a hybrid traffic control system utilizing
fiber optic cable for communications to 53 intersections. This is the
first of two projects that are scheduled to construct the ATMS. This
project will build the control center for the county and communicate
with 53 intersections. Completion of the system is on hold pending the
resolution of some items by the contractor.
Approx. Completion: Currently unknown

City of Naples/Collier County Advanced Transportation
Management System, Design Group II, Design (195403 2 32 01)
This project will expand the computerized signal system to an additional
77 intersections and install video at 50 locations for monitoring traffic.
This is the second of two projects that were scheduled to construct
the ATMS. Design began in July 2001 and is continuing on-schedule. 60%
Plans are scheduled to be received in March 2002.
Approx. Completion: March 2003
Contact: Chris Birosak/(863) 519-2507
City of Punta Gorda/Charlotte County Advanced Transportation
Management System, Design Group II, Design (193824 1 32 01)
This project will expand the computerized signal system to an additional
44 intersections and install video at 40 locations for monitoring traffic.
This is the second of two projects that were scheduled to construct
the ATMS. The NTP was issued in December 2001. 30% Plans are being developed.
Approx. Completion: March 2003

Lakeland Signal Computer System Update (197620
1 32 01)
This project will prepare an ATMS Master Plan for the Lakeland Urban
Area and develop a Design-Build Requirements Package to be used by the
Department to secure a Design-Build Team, which will complete the design
and construct an upgrade to the existing signal system. The ATMS upgrade
will include new central hardware and software, new controllers and
cabinets, an updated communications plant, and video monitoring at selected
locations. The notice to proceed is scheduled for March 2002.
Approx. Completion: March 2003
