Traffic Signal Design, Timing, Operation and Modification Our general approach to new traffic signals and traffic signal modifications is a four-step process: project the traffic volumes for the implementation year, run Highway Capacity and Synchro Analyses to determine optimal signal timing, layout above ground plan for client approval, and complete plans, specifications, and engineering certifications. Maintenance and Protection of Traffic Plans (MPTs), Specifications and Estimates Neglia considers the context of capital improvements; the coordination of managing traffic is a key determinant on the feasibility of a project and increased cost due to overnight construction-if needed. Neglia makes a sincere effort to learn the needs of the area in which the work will be performed. For instance, if roadway work affects a shopping area, then construction staging and detour routes need to be implemented, this way a balance is achieved between the needs of the project and the needs of the affected community. We routinely submit MPT plans to state agencies for public and private projects. We can produce digital products in both AutoCAD and MicroStation formats. Accident Analysis and Countermeasure Development for High-Frequency Locations Upon receipt of accident data, the accident data is plotted out by type on a sketch of the location in question. The data set usually covers a three (3) year or a ten (10) year period. Once plotted, the accident location and frequencies help to visualize the predominant cause of accidents. Once a visual understanding of the accident trends is established, then countermeasure options can be developed. TRAFFIC OPERATIONAL

frequencies help to visualize the predominant cause of accidents. Once a visual understanding of the accident trends is established, then countermeasure options can be developed. TRAFFIC OPERATIONAL ANALYSES Our experience with traffic operational analyses indicates that smarter traffic operations with minor roadway improvements and signal equipment upgrades yield better measures of effectiveness (MOEs) returns than new lane capacity. We routinely use traffic signal optimization software such as Synchro to model existing and proposed conditions. Neglia’s experience also includes the management of a state DOT traffic control center. This real-world experience affords our staff insight into operational analysis for both arterials and freeways and allows us to “temper” purely statistical results. In addition, our working knowledge of traffic signal hardware, system software, freeway management software, and vehicle detection systems provide a complete toolkit to provide our clients with workable solutions for all types of traffic issues. Signing and Pavement Marking Inventory System Development/Management Neglia takes a systematic and cost-conscious approach to all data collection and inventory systems development. Legacy data, if any, is reviewed and strategies are developed to maximize our client’s return on previous investments. Continuing data collection efforts are established that utilize as much RFP- WALKER ROAD, S VALLEY ROAD AND ROONEY CIRCLE WEST ORANGE Page | 5
