The City of Rocklin’s 2018-2022 Capital Investment Plan was adopted by Resolution 2018-188. The first phase of the Traffic Signal ITS project is to create an ITS Master plan to provide direction and recommendations for implementation. This ITS Master Plan is also a requirement in order to compete for grant funding to support this type of work.
The ITS Master Plan builds upon the General Plan and Traffic Circulation Element by setting the vision, goals and objectives for traffic flow from an operational perspective. As the master plan was developed, the existing traffic signal system was evaluated; system gaps and opportunities for deployment were identified, and budgetary cost estimates were created for planning purposes. The Executive Summary provides key highlights and also provides an overview of the proposed deployment strategies.
Currently, $1,334,000 is approved in the 2018-2022 Capital Investment Plan which is funded in the FY 18-19 budget in Lighting and Landscape District 2 (Fund 235) and Traffic Circulation Fee (Fund 302) for ITS infrastructure and the central traffic management system equipment. Once an ITS Master Plan is accepted, staff will at a later time bring the Council recommendations for implementation which include partnering with local utilities and/or City owned installation options.
