Additional Service Request No. 4 – Traffic Signal Timing
Dear Andrew,
BKF is pleased to submit this additional service request for engineering services to provide the City with support
related to the preparation and implementation of traffic signal timing for the three intersections of Gobbi
Street/State Street, Gobbi Street/Main Street, and Gobbi Street/Waugh Lane. We understand that the traffic signals
at State Street and Waugh Lane have been recently installed, and the traffic signal at Main Street is in the process
of being installed and should be operational shortly. The City is requesting a new timing sheet for the intersection
of Gobbi Street/Main Street as well as updated timing sheets for Gobbi Street/State Street and Gobbi Street/Waugh
Lane to include signal coordination among the three signals.
Scope of Services
TASK 18: TRAFFIC SIGNAL TIMING
To develop traffic signal timing sheets, BKF and our sub-consultant, W-Trans, will complete the following services:
1. Scaled as-built drawings, phasing diagrams, and controller software identification for the three study
intersections will be acquired from the City. Additionally, it is assumed that the City will provide a timing
sheet template and current signal timing sheets for the existing signals at Gobbi Street/State Street and
Gobbi Street/Waugh Lane.
2. Intersection traffic counts will be collected at Gobbi Street/State Street, Gobbi Street/Main Street, and Gobbi
Street/Waugh Lane for the weekday morning (7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.), midday (11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.), and
p.m. (4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.) peak periods, including pedestrians, bicycles, and right-turn-on-red
movements. These values will be entered into Synchro traffic analysis software and evaluated to estimate
optimized timings to reduce overall vehicle delay.
3. Using Synchro, optimized coordinated cycle lengths, splits, and offsets for the three study intersections will
be developed for the a.m., midday, and p.m. peak periods. Additionally, maximum green times that can be
set outside of hours of coordination will be determined through Synchro.
4. The existing signal timing sheets for Gobbi Street/State Street and Gobbi Street/Waugh Lane will be
reviewed against requirements in the latest version of the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices regarding elements such as yellow clearance intervals, pedestrian crossing times, and minimum
green time for bicycles. Other elements to be reviewed include red clearance, dual entries, Leading
Pedestrian Intervals (LPIs), time-of-day plans, and emergency vehicle preemption. New coordination
settings and maximum green times will be proposed for the two intersections.

5. New signal timing sheets will be developed for the intersection of Gobbi Street/Main Street based on the
intersection geometry from the provided as-built drawings, operational analysis in Synchro, and
requirements from the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. The timing sheets will include
coordination with the intersections at State Street and Waugh Lane.
6. New timing sheets for Gobbi Street/Main Street and redlined versions of the existing timing sheets for
Gobbi Street/State Street and Gobbi Street/Waugh Lane will be provided to the City and/or BKF for review.
The signal timing sheets will be updated based on feedback from the City and/or BKF.
7. Two engineers from W-Trans will visit the site for no more than one day to assist the City with
implementation of the updated signal timing. W-Trans staff will refine the time-of-day plans such that
coordination is only active when there is sufficient traffic on Gobbi Street. Coordinated splits, offsets, and
maximums green times will also be refined as needed.
8. Final signal timing sheets reflecting changes made in the field will be submitted to the City.
