COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT NO. C-2-2030 ATTACHMENT A SCOPE OF WORK Edinger Avenue Corridor TRAFFIC SIGNAL SYNCHRONIZATION PROJECT The Orange County Transportation Authority (Authority or OCTA) desires to provide the components necessary to improve and enhance signal timing and synchronization services and operations for all signalized intersections on the Edinger Avenue Corridor Traffic Signal Synchronization Project (PROJECT). This approximately twelve (12) mile stretch of PROJECT includes thirty-eight (38) signalized intersections and includes four (4) Orange County agencies (AGENCY or AGENCIES). The street was proposed for synchronization by the City of Santa Ana as part of the 2012 Project P corridors from Renewed Measure M (M2). The term PARTIES shall refer to all participating AGENCIES and OCTA The PROJECT passes through the cities of Santa Ana, Fountain Valley, Huntington Beach, and Westminster. Signals along the corridor are controlled by these AGENCIES. The AGENCIES along the corridor utilize several different types of controllers, including Type 170 C8, Type 2070, NEMA TS - 1, 2 by Econolite, and other manufacturer's each with their own respective firmware or operating systems and characteristics. The main goals and objective of this project is to: • Perform an operations and timing analysis to develop and implement optimized traffic signal synchronization timing, including the development and implementation of timing plans at all signalized intersections; • Determine and make recommendations for all traffic signal equipment and infrastructure related solely to improve and/or enhance synchronization; and • Upon approval by the owning AGENCY and OCTA, procure, furnish and install all approved infrastructure improvements for PROJECT. The implementation of the new optimized timing and infrastructure improvements will: • Provide signal synchronization timing for prevailing traffic patterns • Maximize the number of intersections traversed on a green indication vs. those stop by a red indication • Reduce stops, decrease travel times, and reduce overall delay, • Reduce emissions and Green House Gases (GHG); and • Provide a continuing foundation for interjurisdictional cooperation in coordination of interactive but autonomous local AGENCY traffic signal systems. The following specific tasks are required to be performed in the course of providing service for the traffic signal coordination project. Tasks are listed in sequential order for clarity. However, some tasks may run concurrently or commence prior to the order listed.
