Abstract

This paper describes how the Houston METRO Regional Computerized Traffic Signal System (RCTSS) and the METRO Public Transit System (MPTS) are being integrated into a common systems architecture with real-time interoperability. RCTSS is also integrated with the TxDOT, Houston District, Metropolitan Regional Freeway Management System. This totally integrated, county-wide system provides over 1,800 square miles of real-time coordination between transit and traffic functions. Brief details are provided of: a) the integrated communications network; and b) the operation centre architecture.
