The target audience to receive this manual will be transportation practitioners from the State, city, and local level, responsible for the day-to-day timing and coordination of traffic signals. The manual will focus on the principles of traffic signal timing, identify sound timing practices, and be a practical and comprehensive tabletop resource.
