Traffic and Transit

The Traffic Engineering program is charged with ensuring Scottsdale's street network operates safely and efficiently. This program conducts simulations and analyses of traffic volumes, impacts and accident rates, recommends and designs traffic calming solutions and ensures that right-of-way is managed, especially when impacted by construction projects or special events. It ensures staff has maximized the use of technology to increase the capacity of the roadway and transit systems. Staff conducts analyses to determine the placement, type, and operation of traffic control devices (signing, striping, traffic signals). Staff administers the Neighborhood Traffic Management program, the Cops and Ops program for streamlining communication with Police Traffic Enforcement, and the Traffic Impact Mitigation Analysis program for assessment of the traffic impacts of development via developer-funded traffic engineering consultants.

The Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) program operates and coordinates the local and regional traffic system through the Scottsdale Traffic Management Center. The program is responsible for the planning, oversight, and installation of the City's Traffic Signal Control System and the AZTech automated roadway management technology. It coordinates with Scottsdale Police Department Traffic Enforcement, Arizona Department of Public Safety, Maricopa County, and Arizona Department of Transportation for rapid response initiatives and provides City representation to neighboring communities and regional organizations.
