Home of Disneyland, the Californian city of Anaheim can suffer from acute traffic congestion. To manage this, the city has picked Iteris to implement cloud-enabled congestion and asset management as part of a regional smart mobility and safety programme. The city’s smart mobility and safety programme is a shift away from manual corridor performance monitoring and management operations to cloud based SaaS solutions.

Located outside Los Angeles in Orange County, Anaheim is the home not just to the Disneyland Resort but also to a major convention centre, and two major sports teams.

The City of Anaheim will use Iteris’ congestion management service for arterial roads and asset management service for intersections to augment the city’s traffic management and asset management operations. This includes the arterial performance measures features of Iteris’ ClearGuide SaaS-based mobility intelligence solution, allowing remote monitoring of arterial travel times and reliability as well as prioritisation of retiming efforts, identification of congestion hotspots, and characterisation of highway traffic impacts on surrounding arterial roads. The city is looking to use these capabilities to optimise proactively signal timing performance across its monitored corridors.

Anaheim will also use Iteris’ asset management SaaS solution, ClearAsset to track inventory and condition of technology equipment deployed in the field or warehoused, conduct lifecycle analysis, and monitor asset performance.

“We are proud to continue to support the City of Anaheim’s goals of improving the safety, mobility and sustainability of Anaheim road users by embarking on this regional smart mobility, safety and sustainability project,” said Scott Carlson, general manager and vice president, Mobility Professional Services at Iteris. “This initiative represents the continued expansion of Iteris’ managed services and SaaS solutions across the west coast, and will ultimately help to increase the value, effectiveness and resilience of the region’s existing transportation infrastructure, while also improving air quality and reducing fuel consumption.”
