Transit Signal Priority for Public Transport & Buses
The basic concept of Transit Signal Priority (TSP) includes different operational changes through technology that decrease stop time at traffic signals for transit vehicles. It either holds green lights longer or shortens red lights. Such changes in public transport movements at crossings are an excellent way to undo the mess with the public transport travel time and increase schedule reliability. There are primarily two sorts of TSP: Passive Traffic Signal Priority – In the Passive system, as per the average public transport vehicle speed, the traffic signals are arranged to turn green. Active Traffic Signal Priority – In the Active TSP system, the bus transmits a signal to the traffic signal controller. Let us read more on other active traffic signal priority systems: Dedicated priority – phasing changes; Longer Green Time – timing changes; Phase & Timing Change; Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). Dedicated Priority – Phasing Changes The most simplistic TSP's turn the
