SCATES

The SCATES program calculates optimum phasing designs, phase splits and cycle lengths for traffic signals, and calculates optimum offsets for linear and network co-ordinated traffic signal systems, providing offset and split data for SCATS. 

Halcrow MWT has extensive experience in the application of SCATES to existing and proposed traffic signal systems, and can utilise the SCATES program for:

  • determination of warrants for signal co-ordination
  • analysis of road design projects involving multiple signal controlled intersections that interact
  • hourly and annual delay, costs, fuel and total annual operating costs
  • analysis of phasing designs for isolated or coordinated intersections.
