Traffic Signals
The City of Centennial is responsible for the operations and maintenance of all City-owned traffic signals; the central traffic signal control system; and school flashing beacons. Responsibilities also include the design, review and approval of all new traffic signal and school flashing beacon installations; developing, implementing and updating traffic signal timing and corridor operations; and other related items to keep the City moving.
Well maintained traffic signal infrastructure, timing, and coordination can reduce travel time and driver delays as well as associated vehicle emissions.
The City operates and maintains the following devices:
- 90 Traffic Signals
- 27 Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB)
- 26 School Flashers
- 13 Speed Radar Feedback Signs
The City’s traffic signals are connected to the central traffic signal control and monitoring system using fiber optic communications. In addition, school flashing beacons and other intelligent traffic control devices – such as certain speed radar feedback signs and RRFBs – can be accessed and monitored through cloud-based platforms to enhance real-time awareness and operational efficiency.
RRFBs are pedestrian-activated flashing lights installed at crosswalks to alert drivers when pedestrians are crossing.
