Intelligent Transportation Systems - City of Oakland

o High Street
o MacArthur Boulevard – 35 th Avenue to 98 th Avenue
• Interconnect the traffic signals and CCTV locations on the following priority corridors
to the TMC via fiber optics:
o Telegraph Avenue
o Broadway – Grand Ave to Route 24
• Establish CDPD or other wireless connection from TMC to DMS, TBS and MVDS
devices as necessary.
• Develop a detailed Telecommunications Master Plan for the City of Oakland ITS
network that builds on the recommendations in this Plan.
• Connect the Oakland TMC to the existing downtown fiber loop. This will involve
terminating the two fibers allocated to the Transportation Services Division in the
TMC.
• Establish a direct connection between the Oakland TMC and the Oakland EOC
utilizing the downtown fiber. This will need to be high speed C2C connection.
• Explore opportunities for a direct connection between the Oakland TMC and the
Caltrans TMC.
8.1.2 Signal System Projects
• Select and implement a new central signal system. If a system other than Bi Tran is
selected, maintain the Bi Tran system for the San Pablo, North CBD, 98 th Street,
Hegenberger and Broadway controllers until the complete transition to the new
central system is completed.
• Implement interconnected San Pablo, Broadway, North CBD, 98 th Street and
Hegenberger controllers on the new central signal system. These controllers will not
need to be replaced since they are Type 170 controllers. Firmware in these
controllers will not need to be updated assuming the City continues to use the
existing Bitrans software.
• Replace all the NEMA TS1 controllers and some NEMA cabinets (as necessary) with
new controllers and cabinets and implement them on the new central signal system
on the following corridors:
o Broadway – Grand Avenue to Route 24
o Hegenberger – Office Complex to International Boulevard
o 73 rd Avenue – International Boulevard to MacArthur Boulevard
o 98 th Avenue – I-880 to I-580
o East 14 th Street/International Boulevard – entire corridor (keep existing Type
170E controllers at some intersections)
o San Leandro Street – High to 98 th Avenue (Type 170E controllers and Type
332 cabinets exist between 73 rd Avenue and 98 th Avenue)
o Telegraph Avenue – Grand to Alcatraz
o High – I-880 to I-580
o MacArthur - High Street to 98 th Avenue
• Develop and implement signal timing coordination plans on the priority corridors
listed above.
• Implement VID systems at all traffic signals on the priority corridors listed above.
Note that VID already exists on some of San Pablo Avenue and Hegenberger.
