Intelligent Transportation Systems
SACOG
is working with local partners to plan and implement Intelligent Transportation
Systems (ITS) projects to improve traffic flow and reduce vehicle
emissions.
ITS projects use advanced technology and tools such as freeway ramp meters,
dynamic message signs and traffic signal timing to provide real-time information
on traffic conditions and coordinate operations at local traffic centers.
The Sacramento Transportation Area Network, or STARNET, is a major component
of the Sacramento region's ITS architecture. While ITS technologies can be found
throughout the region, several collaborative efforts are underway to address the most
congested corridors. Future efforts will be coordinated through the Sacramento Region
ITS Partnership, an advisory committee composed of local and state transportation personnel.
