City of Danville Public Works Department

Description: This stakeholder operates the City of Danville TMC.

Develop, coordinate with emergency management and other traffic management centers, and execute special traffic management strategies during evacuation and subsequent reentry of a population in the vicinity of a disaster or major emergency.
Monitor traffic sensor and surveillance systems remotely to detect and verify incidents.
Monitor external advisory and incident reporting systems, intermodal freight depots, and border crossings for incident information.
Report identified incidents to operations personnel and other centers.
Formulate an incident response that takes into account the incident potential, incident impacts, and/or resources required for incident management including proposing and facilitating the dispatch of emergency response and service vehicles.
Coordinate incident response with all appropriate cooperating agencies.
Control traffic signal controllers remotely to implement traffic management strategies at signalized intersections based on traffic conditions, incidents, emergency vehicle preemptions, pedestrian crossings, etc.
Disseminate traffic-related data to other centers, the media, and travelers via the driver information systems (DMS, HAR).

Monitor traffic sensors and surveillance (CCTV) equipment.
Collect current traffic conditions from sensors and surveillance equipment.
Distribute current traffic conditions to other centers.
Operate and maintain field equipment that controls and sends data to other field equipment (such as environmental sensors that send data to a DMS or coordination between traffic controllers on adjacent intersections), without being controlled from a center.
Monitor traffic conditions using field equipment (i.e. loop detectors and CCTV cameras).
Control ramp meters, interchange connector meters, lane control signals, mainline meters, and variable speed control systems remotely.
Share traffic information with other traffic management centers.
Allow control of field equipment by other traffic management centers.
Control traffic signal controllers remotely to implement traffic management strategies at signalized intersections based on traffic conditions, incidents, emergency vehicle preemptions, pedestrian crossings, etc.
Disseminate traffic-related data to other centers, the media, and travelers via the driver information systems (DMS, HAR).
Monitor and remotely diagnose field equipment issues including detecting failures, issuing problem reports, and tracking the repair or replacement of failed equipment.
