mramr-uaae county,l-L irswyz-irzu <br /> The new features, and intended operational concept are briefly defined in the following sections: <br /> Legacy Reports <br /> The engineering and operations team at the TMC relies on certain reporting features available <br /> within the legacy system. This task will define up to five such reports and, to the greatest extent <br /> possible, replicate and enhance the reports so as to ease the operational transition between the <br /> old legacy system to Centracs. Additionally, Contractor will develop an extension to allow the <br /> County to develop their own reports as their operational needs change over time. <br /> Synchro Support <br /> Centracs currently supports an older version of Synchro. This feature will bring Centracs up to <br /> date with the current released version, or as close as is reasonably possible. <br /> Work Flows <br /> The Engineers in the Miami-Dade TMC are assigned areas to ensure timings are optimized. <br /> They have privileges to make any adjustments to the timings they deem to be appropriate and <br /> they can do this without supervisory approval. <br /> However, in some cases, such as where an external developer or a new signal is installed, <br /> and/or revised and new timings are submitted, these changes must first be approved by a <br /> supervisor before they can be downloaded to the controller. <br /> This feature will add functionality to Centracs so that the above operational procedures are <br /> replicated. Additionally, the timing changes requiring supervisory approval will be formatted into <br /> a meaningful report and sent via email to the supervisor. Once the timings are reviewed, the <br /> supervisor can suggest modifications or approve the timings. Then, only after the timings are <br /> approved, can the engineer download the timings to the field. <br /> Scratch Pad <br /> The County and/or its transportation partners hires outside consultants to develop and update <br /> traffic signal timing plans. This feature will allow approved outside parties to have access to <br /> Centracs. The outside parties would work within a "scratch pad" area of Centracs where they <br /> could develop, review, and test new traffic signal timing plans and save those timings to the <br /> Centracs database. <br /> The Centracs databases would be formatted to run through a model (such as VISSIM or <br /> TRANSYT 14)to help determine whether they have made a net positive impact. Centracs, the <br /> tool used to develop the timings, and the selected model, would all be tightly integrated such <br /> that the controller databases can easily be passed from one system to another. Adjustments <br /> . and tweaks to optimize the timings in the tool set would be fed back to the timing database(s) <br /> for easy incorporation into Centracs. Licenses for third party tools, such as VISSIM, TRANSYT <br /> 14, Synchro or others will be provided by the County. <br /> The outside party would not be able to download the timings to the field, but, similar to the Work <br /> Flow Approval above, the timings would be submitted to the County for review and approval. <br /> Once approved, the timings could be downloaded. <br /> Page 39 of 57 <br />
