Traffic signal preemption (also called traffic signal prioritisation) is a system that allows the normal operation of traffic lights to be preempted. The most common use of these systems manipulates traffic signals in the path of an emergency vehicle, halting conflicting traffic and allowing the emergency vehicle right-of-way, thereby reducing response times and enhance traffic safety. Signal preemption can also be used on tram, light-rail and bus rapid transit systems, to allow public transportation priority access through intersections, and by railroad systems at crossings to prevent collisions.

  • Traffic signal preemption (also called traffic signal prioritisation) is a system that allows the normal operation of traffic lights to be preempted. The most common use of these systems manipulates traffic signals in the path of an emergency vehicle, halting conflicting traffic and allowing the emergency vehicle right-of-way, thereby reducing response times and enhance traffic safety. Signal preemption can also be used on tram, light-rail and bus rapid transit systems, to allow public transportation priority access through intersections, and by railroad systems at crossings to prevent collisions.

  • Verkeerslichtbeïnvloeding is het beïnvloeden van de werking van verkeerslichten door bussen en trams om zo kruispunten sneller te kunnen oversteken, waardoor de doorstroming van het openbaar vervoer verbetert, en daardoor de stiptheid. In 1980 bleek bij een onderzoek naar de reistijdvariatie bij Haagse stadstrams 91% van de afwijkingen te kunnen worden verklaard door de variatie in verkeerslichtoponthoud. Tegenwoordig maken voertuigen van hulpdiensten, zoals brandweer en ambulance, ook gebruik van de mogelijkheid van verkeerslichtbeïnvloeding. (nl)
