Section 1
Traffic Signal Synchronization Goals, Policies, and Objectives
The City of Orange's Local Signal Synchronization Plan is a step towards the implementation of the City's General Plan Circulation Element Goal to provide safe, efficient, and comprehensive circulation system that serves local needs, forecasted demands, and sustains quality of life. The Local Signal Synchronization Plan addresses both local and regional circulation needs.
The Local Signal Synchronization Plan is recognized by the City to be a valuable measure in maintaining an effective and efficient circulation system. Towards this end, the City has carried out and continues to implement and support synchronization related projects in collaboration with neighboring cities and agencies.
The City has allocated resources and efforts in the management, operations, and maintenance of its traffic signal system in keeping with the Local Signal Synchronization Plan. The following is a description of the City's efforts in implementing the Plan:
A. Completed Inter-Jurisdictional Signal Coordination Projects • Main Street RTSSP
• Katella Avenue RTSSP
• Garden Grove Boulevard RTSSP
• Santiago Boulevard
B. Current Inter-Jurisdictional Signal Coordination Projects •
Kraemer Blvd/Glassell St/Grand Ave RTSSP - PI Phase ongoing • Ball Road/Taft Avenue RTSSP - PI Phase ongoing
• Tustin Street/Rose Drive RTSSP - PI Phase completed, O&M Phase ongoing • State College Blvd/The City Dr RTSSP - PI Phase ongoing
C. Planned/Future Inter-Jurisdictional Signal Coordination Projects • Lincoln Avenue
• Chapman Avenue
• Orangewood Avenue
• Santiago Canyon Boulevard/Wanda Road (New Corridor)
D. Existing Synchronization Infrastructure
• The City of Orange Traffic Management Center (TMC) facility is an additional tool to effectively manage traffic. The TMC is capable of managing multi-jurisdictional interlinks with neighboring cities to allow direct communications with each respective systems. This supports the full implementation of the Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Network. 2026 Local Signal Synchronization Plan Update
The City, through the RTSSP, has renovated the TMC with a new video wall, appurtenant hardware, and upgraded to the Centracs Advanced Traffic Management System platform in order to effectively utilize the TMC functions.
• To date, the City has the following synchronized major arterials namely:
- Tustin Street between Fairhaven Avenue and Santa Ana Canyon Road - Lincoln Avenue between Batavia Street and East City Limit - Katella Avenue between West City Limit (Struck Avenue) and Jamboree Road - Chapman Avenue between Lewis Street and Cliffway Drive - State College Boulevard/The City Drive between Garden Grove Boulevard and Orangewood Avenue
- Newport Boulevard between Canyon View Avenue and Santiago Canyon Road - Taft Avenue between Main Street and Tustin Street
- Glassell Street between Riverdale Avenue and SR-22 westbound ramp - Orangewood Avenue between Eckhoff Street and Batavia Street The traffic signals along these corridors are equipped with the necessary infrastructure and communication systems to effect synchronization.
• New Corridor
- Santiago Boulevard/Wanda Road between Lincoln Avenue and Collins Avenue is categorized as a City Controlled System (Local Route). The corridor is heavily utilized as motorists utilize the arterial to bypass the SR-55 freeway.
E. Locally Funded Arterial Synchronization
• At this time, there are no planned locally funded arterials to be synchronized.
F. Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Master Plan
• The City of Orange is committed and in full support of the Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Ma ster Plan. There were no candidate synchronization corridors currently identified for the 2026 CTFP Call for Projects. Participation is planned for city corridors on future calls.
• The City has taken the initiative with its own synchronization efforts and will continue to participate and source funding opportunities to realize full regional synchronization.
G. Resource Allocation
• The City of Orange allocates funds both in its Capital Improvement Program and Operating Budget towards efforts in the implementation of local and regional synchronization projects and programs.
2026 Local Signal Synchronization Plan Update
• The City of Orange operates and maintains its own traffic signal network which is the responsibility of the Traffic Division under the Public Works Department. The Traffic Division's Operations Section is responsible for the routine preventive maintenance and associated operations of the traffic signal equipment, infrastructure, and appurtenances. • Staff is allocated to perform Engineering and Traffic Survey for data collection relative to signal synchronization. The data collection includes traffic volume studies, directional counts, and travel-time and delay studies.

2026 Local Signal Synchronization Plan Update
Section 5
Traffic Signal Synchronization Assessment Review
and Update of Traffic Signal Timing
Significant timing plan updates and projects completed
FY 2023/2024 through 2025/2026
The City of Orange is committed to maintain efficient traffic flow throughout the City’s arterials. To achieve this, the City will continue to upgrade and maintain the traffic signal system and signal timing synchronization. The City will also participate in inter- jurisdictional synchronization projects with neighboring agencies.
OCTA has established the Corridor Synchronization Performance Index (CSPI) to measure the corridor performance. The components of the CSPI are travel time and stop reduction, average speed and gas savings. The City has participated in signal synchronization programs in coordination with OCTA and other neighboring agencies for a number of arterials in the past three years. The Tustin Avenue-Rose Drive RTSSP Corridor is currently in the monitoring stages and the project will be completed in July 2026.
The implemented projects showed performance improvements in all categories of travel time reduction, stop reduction, increase green to red signal ratio, and decreased stops per mile as indicated on the final report for the corridor synchronization as shown on the attached CSPI map. The CSPI map is from 2023 , and OCTA is currently working on a new CSPI assessment via the OCTA Countywide Baseline project. An updated CSPI map will be included in the next LSSP update.
The City of Orange has allocated funds, staffing, and invested in traffic signal infrastructure as part of its strategy for sustaining its traffic signal synchronization efforts including update of timing plans on a periodic basis for years to come. To this end, the City’s Traffic Division has a count program to update traffic volumes for the biennial traffic flow map. The City will also retain the services of traffic engineering firms to perform signal timing tasks both for local and inter-jurisdictional synchronization projects as the need arises.
