Traffic Signal Detection Technology Evaluation

The City of Charlotte Department of Transportation (CDOT) is seeking proposals from qualified vendors to provide advanced detection technology and assist with its installation at designated intersections. This effort supports a comparative analysis to identify the most suitable detection solution for the City. The selected detection systems must reliably identify all roadway users, including vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, and scooters.

Participating vendors will engage in a field evaluation and must provide all necessary equipment, software, and installation assistance. The City intends to award a three-year contract with two optional one-year renewals, for a total potential term of five years. Evaluation criteria include detection capabilities, ease of installation and maintenance, technical compliance, feature set, data quality, experience, and cost competitiveness.
