Objectives:

This course is suitable for anyone recent or new in the traffic signal/control field. In addition, senior managers who find that they are responsible for traffic signal control teams and their background experience hitherto has been in other specialist areas such as highway design, transportation planning etc. will find this a very useful course and may opt to attend only the first day. The course offers an ideal preparation for virtually any of our other courses, and particularly for a LinSig course, which usually follows. A discounted package rate is available for combining these, for the same delegate.
