As part of a city-wide effort to modernise its infrastructure, the City of Palmdale, California has selected 772 McCain’s Transparity TMS to update the City’s central traffic management software. Transparity TMS will replace McCain’s first-generation central software, which the City of Palmdale has been utilising since 2003.

The choice of Transparity TMS leverages innovative technology that complies with national industry standards, namely ATC and NTCIP and will provide an increased capacity for centrally monitoring and controlling the agency’s signal communication system. In addition, engineers will be equipped with more robust data collection and analysis tools necessary for improving overall traffic flow.

The project also emphasises the integration of the City of Palmdale’s signal network into the County of Los Angeles Information Exchange Network (IEN), which allows member agencies to connect and communicate via an open architecture, sharing of real-time intersection data and control between jurisdictions.

“We are excited to partner with Palmdale on this landmark project showcasing the benefits of adopting industry standards and cutting-edge products,” said Nathan Welch, director of sales at McCain. “The win affirms McCain’s capabilities as a safe, reliable, and flexible Provider of traffic management systems.”
