Traffic Signals : Managing our Assets

Abstract

SCDOT has identified a performance gap in the area of tracking particular equipment from cradle to grave. Unlike many other roadway assets, traffic signal assets are not all installed in the field. Many assets are stored in signal shop inventories for use in repairing assets when needed. By not accurately accounting for these assets and tracking assets at all times, SCDOT is not providing a complete picture of the traffic signal assets in the State. The focus of this project was the performance gap identified above, the tracking of equipment from purchase to disposal.
