Bedford upgrading all traffic signals to Autoscope Vision

May 28, 2023

BEDFORD, Texas - Beginning Tuesday, May 30, crews will begin upgrading the vehicle detection systems on every traffic signal in Bedford to the Autoscope Vision system.

This will provide the following capabilities:

• Ability to program and reprogram the traffic signal timing within minutes
• Detecting pedestrians, both waiting to cross and in the crosswalk
• Detecting cyclists
• Detecting approaching vehicles, up to 600 feet

This will allow the traffic light cycle to be triggered by pedestrians and cyclists. It will also increase safety and help Public Works crews be more efficient by detecting vehicles before they stop at an intersection.

This project will take approximately one month to complete, weather permitting. Crews will be able to complete three traffic signals per day, and traffic signals will continue to function during this work.
