Overview
The purpose of the Michigan Signal Optimization Guidelines is to provide guidelines and recommendations for conducting signal optimization projec ts in the state of Michigan in a complete and consistent manner. This document is intended to guide the process, and not to be a restrictive document. As the signal timing process varies significantly by location, each project will have unique requirements that should be discussed and agreed upon by the entire project team, including MDOT, the local jurisdiction(s), consultant(s) and other affected parties . Engineering judgment must ultimately supersede the guidelines herein should the conditions of the specific project warrant it.
