Under CCTA’s innovative leadership, AMG is delivering comprehensive strategic transportation planning and traffic engineering services for the Countywide Smart Signals Project — one of the most ambitious traffic modernization efforts in the Bay Area. Our team led the development of the Countywide Fiber Master Plan and crafted a winning OBAG 3 funding application, securing the financial support needed to move the project from concept to construction.

Once complete, the Countywide Smart Signals Project will replace and upgrade traffic controllers, communication systems, and infrastructure at 326 intersections, creating a fully connected network that allows agencies to share real-time traffic data and coordinate operations seamlessly. This enhanced connectivity will reduce congestion, improve roadway safety, and enable faster emergency response.

The system’s capabilities extend far beyond traditional traffic control. Smart Signals will:

• Enable dynamic signal optimization to adapt to traffic patterns in real time
• Provide transit priority to reduce delays and improve reliability
• Integrate bike signals and phasing to support multimodal transportation
• Leverage video analytics for data-driven planning and decision-making

By building the digital backbone for a smarter, safer, and more connected transportation future, the Countywide Smart Signals Project positions Contra Costa to embrace emerging mobility technologies — from autonomous vehicles to adaptive traffic systems — and lead the way in Smart City innovation.
