Collierville launched state-of-the-art traffic operations center

The town of Collierville has launched a state-of-the-art Traffic Operations Center, an initiative driven by the innovative efforts of the Town’s Engineering Division. The engineering team who spearheaded the project included Neetu Singh, Jesse Frye, and Shane Richardson. The center was approved by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen in May 2023 as a Fiscal Year 2024 Capital Improvement Project. With a budget of $120,000, the funds were used for fiber repairs, upgrading controllers/switches, a new server, a new computer, and TV monitors. After a year of dedicated work, the center was successfully opened in May 2024.  Currently, 16 intersections across the town are connected and available for real-time monitoring via the operations center. This connectivity is made possible through an extensive network of fiber lines.
