Traffic Signal System contract includes
construction administration and inspection services
Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (NYSE:JEC) has received a contract
from the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) to provide
construction administration and inspection services for the Route
18 Traffic Signal System project in East Brunswick and New
Brunswick, New Jersey. The Route 18 project consists of the
installation of new Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)
equipment and upgrades to the existing traffic signal system.
Jacobs’ construction administration and inspection services
include the installation of image and radar detectors, Controlled
Traffic Signal System (CTSS) cameras and fiber optic cable at 23
locations along the Route 18 corridor. The project is scheduled for
completion by November 2017.
Jacobs will oversee a traffic study to be conducted prior to the
start of any work to determine daily volumes at each traffic
signal, average corridor travel time and average intersection
delay. The findings will be compared with the information obtained
when the system is integrated and operational. Once the equipment
is installed and integrated into the NJDOT Statewide System, a
verification and validation plan will be executed and testing
performed.
“Jacobs has worked alongside NJDOT on many projects over the
past 60 years,” said Jacobs Senior Vice President Buildings and
Infrastructure Randy Pierce. “This experience, combined with our
proven capability in transport engineering services including ITS,
positions us well to help NJDOT meet the challenges and
opportunities of this rapidly changing technological
landscape.”

of full-spectrum technical, professional and construction services
