From yesterday: Ever wonder how traffic signals are controlled?

This was a tour sponsored by the Palm Beach County Planning Congress through the County's Intelligent Transportation System. It's part of the County's Engineering Department. It's a little on the geeky side, but it is fascinating what technology has allowed us to do remotely and quickly as it relates to traffic control. Did you know that there is over 520 miles of fiber optic cable that is used for cameras and signalization? And, we learned that the red-light cameras at some intersections are completely independent of this system.

There are three videos as part of this playlist - which lasts a little less than an hour and a half.

Here is a link to the applicable County webpage.
