Gateway Cities Traffic Signal Synchronization and Bus
Speed Improvement Project
The Atlantic Blvd./I-710 Corridor is a County of Los
Angeles project which will result in arterial
infrastructure improvements on north-south and east-west
arterials along I-710 freeway in the South-East Los
Angeles County (Gateway Cities) Forum.
The Atlantic Blvd./I-710 project area consists of 642
intersections in the following 15 different
jurisdictions, comprising 13 cities, the County and
Caltrans.
- Los Angeles County
- Caltrans
- Bell
- Bell Gardens
- Commerce
- Compton
- Cudahy
- Huntington Park
- Long Beach
- Lynwood
- Maywood
- Paramount
- Signal Hill
- South Gate
- Vernon
The objective of this project is to design, develop and
deploy Advanced Traffic Management System(s) (ATMS) in
the corridor so that the signals in the Project area can
be synchronized across the jurisdictional boundaries.
This project concentrates on the needs of the agencies
in this corridor with respect to signal synchronization
and recommends improvements to field infrastructure
(including controllers, loops, detectors, and
communications) and central traffic control systems to
meet those needs.
When successfully completed, each of the agencies
responsible for traffic signal operations in the
Atlantic Blvd./I-710 Corridor will have full access to
an ATMS that monitors and controls the traffic signals
under their jurisdiction. Agencies will be able to
synchronize their signals with neighboring agencies, and
exchange traffic information in real-time. Agencies will
also be able to exchange data with other agencies in the
Gateway Cities region. This will allow the agencies to
respond to recurrent and non-recurrent congestion in a
coordinated fashion across the jurisdictional
boundaries.
