ALBUQUERQUE, NM – ITS Integration & ATMS Upgrade
The City of Albuquerque needed to modernize its aging Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS). Econolite Systems installed the Centracs ATMS platform and integrated the city’s existing 400 traffic signal controllers to support improved signal operations and traffic monitoring.
Project Overview
This Albuquerque project replaced outdated infrastructure with a scalable traffic management solution. Econolite’s team installed 70 new traffic controllers, replaced 15 signal cabinets, and upgraded existing controller firmware to ensure compatibility and performance.
In addition, the project developed detailed graphical displays for all 400 intersections and integrated 100 CCTV cameras into the Centracs ATMS. These enhancements give traffic engineers real-time visibility and improved control over traffic flows.
Key System Features
- Centracs ATMS for centralized traffic signal control and monitoring
- Installation of 70 new Econolite ASC/3 controllers
- Firmware upgrades to existing ASC/2 controllers
- Replacement of 15 traffic signal cabinets
- Graphical displays for 400 intersections
- Integration of 100 CCTV cameras for live monitoring
These components help transportation staff optimize signal timing and improve response to traffic conditions across Albuquerque.
Operational Benefits
- Improved signal coordination across the city
- Better real-time monitoring with CCTV integration
- Enhanced system reliability with new controllers
- Scalable platform for future traffic management needs
As a result, the City of Albuquerque now has a modern ATMS capable of supporting efficient traffic operations and ongoing system improvements.
