Sacramento Regional ITS Architecture
Sacramento Regional ITS Partnership
DATE June 2001
PURPOSE
The Regional ITS Architecture for the Sacramento area proposes the ideal
synthesis of cross-functional projects and sub-projects to better enhance and
integrate the ITS infrastructure, functions and operations to achieve
immediate and long term regional benefits to the residents of the
Sacramento metropolitan area. Although benefit is realized through the
deployment of individual ITS projects such as signal timing and control, the
real benefit of ITS is achieved through the integration of systems and
institutions. This region is still in the process of accomplishing these goals,
demonstrated by documentation in this Report.
The figure below excerpted from the report summarizes ITS deployments
currently existing or under development:
SUMMARY
RECOMMENDATIONS FROM DOCUMENT
Recommendations in the architecture pertained to ITS planning and institutional issues include:
Member agencies of the ITS Partnership pursue funding for a Regional Information Network that
will allow regional integration or center-to-center communications between all traffic
management and operations centers in the Sacramento area.
A “user needs” study that will represent the result of individual systems review for: City of
Sacramento, City of Roseville, Sacramento Regional Transit District (RT), Sacramento County, City
of Citrus Heights and Caltrans. This study will identify some preliminary costs for systems
integration, identify interface issues perhaps it will identify some additional benefits, preliminary
to the Early Deployment Plan.
