Project Activities
The following are initial activities underway across each of the five focus areas of the Loop 101 Mobility Project. Information will be updated to reflect current activities:
Decision Support System for Loop 101 ICM
Loop 101 will integrate decision-support system (DSS) capabilities to help inform and enhance response to incidents on the freeway, support freeway/arterial coordination and improve overall agency communications. This task will also implement capabilities to connect travelers with information to support travel and trip decision-making on the Loop 101 corridor.
- Operations Plan – complete
- Concept of Operations – update in progress
- High Level Requirement Specifications – in progress
Adaptive Signal Control Technology – Glendale
Adaptive signal control technologies will be implemented in Glendale near the Stadium to better support special event traffic management. This task is being led by MCDOT and the City of Glendale.
- Concepts and Requirements – complete
- Procurement – complete
- Implementation – complete
Adaptive Ramp Metering Coordination
ADOT is implementing adaptive ramp metering capabilities along the Loop 101 corridor through several different projects over the next two years. This task will identify strategies to coordinate adaptive ramp meter implementation and operations. ADOT is the lead agency for ramp meter implementation, operations and coordination.
- Existing Conditions – complete
- Full implementation – complete
Connected Vehicle Applications for Transit and Emergency Vehicles
The Loop 101 Mobility project will implement and pilot connected vehicle technologies with transit and incident response vehicles in a limited pilot area of 83rd Avenue across the Cities of Glendale, Phoenix, and Peoria. MCDOT and the Cities are leading technical tasks.
- Readiness Assessment – complete
- Requirements and Procurement Documentation – in progress
