Traffic signal synchronization work on State Route 95 in Lake Havasu City scheduled May 17-18

The Arizona Department of Transportation will be upgrading 20 traffic signals on State Route 95 in Lake Havasu City on Monday, May 17, and Tuesday, May 18. The work will take place off the roadway from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is not expected to impact traffic. 

The installation of the new technology will enable the traffic signals to be synchronized by radio frequency.

Traffic-signal synchronization is a traffic engineering technique of matching the green light times for a series of intersections to enable the maximum number of vehicles to pass through, thereby reducing stops and delays experienced by motorists. 

Synchronizing traffic signals helps ensure a better flow of traffic and minimizes gas consumption and pollutant emissions.

Motorists should use caution around construction personnel and equipment.

Schedules are subject to change based on weather and other unforeseen factors.
