One of the main goals of
PASSAGE
is reducing congestion on Lake County’s arterial
highways. One of the services PASSAGE
provides is a "Live" congestion map. Congestion levels are
calculated based on volume, occupancy and speed of cars
through an intersection. Estimated congestion
levels for a given segment of road are displayed on
the map and continuously updated. The map shows
congestion data for county highways where the PASSAGE network of signals and fiber optic cable is in
place. New signals are being added all the time, and
their related data will show on the map as they join the
PASSAGE
network. Checking the PASSAGE congestion map
allows travelers to “know before they go” and make
sensible travel route selection decisions.
