Iteris has announced that it has been awarded a contract valued at $547,000 from the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) to provide statewide vehicle and pedestrian detection support services.
"Iteris has been involved in many UDOT traffic management projects over the years and we are excited to continue our support in this region with the implementation of vehicle and pedestrian improvements statewide," said Abbas Mohaddes, president and chief executive officer for Iteris. "We have always enjoyed great working relationships with the UDOT Region traffic and signal engineers and local contractors. Iteris brings a highly-energetic, experienced and pro-active staff that has the ability to think on their feet and do whatever is necessary to ensure project quality and the satisfaction of UDOT."
Iteris will provide a variety of services as part of this contract which include: technical field engineering, the preparation of detection evaluation guidelines, investigation of known detection problems, and the supervision of contractor repairs. Iteris is a specialist in vehicle and pedestrian detection and has successfully provided similar services to many other agencies.
UDOT has recently obtained funding to focus on improving and repairing vehicle and pedestrian detection and bring it back to full operation at all state maintained traffic signals. Iteris will help UDOT track these funds, demonstrate measurable benefits and utilise the available funding to repair detection and provide improved signal operations.
Work on this contract began last month and the expected completion date is the end of 2008. Having completed numerous projects for the State of Utah, Iteris has over 40 years of cumulative, direct UDOT experience with a comprehensive background in all UDOT detection systems and technologies.
