Enhancement of the Connected Vehicle Signal Priority (CVSP) Platform
FY 2021-22 · 2021-09-01
Summary
The goal of this project is to enhance the novel Connected Vehicle Platform to communicate traffic signal timing information to the driver and to implement real-time adjustment of the signal timing using the real-time connected vehicle information. This will provide priority to the vehicle. The enhancement will include improvements in the performance of the algorithms and analytics and implementation of the preemption functionality. As part of this project the developed technology will be piloted in a partner Regional Municipality in Ontario.

Description (French)
L'objectif de ce projet est d'améliorer la nouvelle plateforme de véhicules connectés afin de communiquer au conducteur des informations sur la synchronisation des feux de circulation, et de mettre en œuvre un ajustement en temps réel de la synchronisation des feux en utilisant les informations en temps réel du véhicule connecté. Ce système permettra de donner la priorité au véhicule. Le perfectionnement comprendra l'amélioration des performances des algorithmes et des analyses et la mise en œuvre de la fonctionnalité de préemption. Dans le cadre de ce projet, la technologie développée sera testée dans une municipalité régionale partenaire en Ontario.
