Traffic Control Signal Removal Field Study
The City of Omaha is currently upgrading all citywide traffic signals in a multi-phase, multi-year project. Each phase begins with a review to determine if signals meet Federal Highway Administration criteria. Signals that do not meet these criteria are temporarily turned off for approximately 60 days. During this evaluation period, the city collects data, reviews operations, and considers public input. After analyzing the gathered information, signals that continue to fall short of the criteria may be permanently removed.
