Traffic Signal Enhancement and Congestion Relief

A Citywide traffic congestion relief and safety improvement project is underway to improve traffic flow and help make our streets safer for motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians. The project is designed to add state-of-the art features at more than 100 traffic signals, many on heavily trafficked roads like Elk Grove Boulevard and Laguna Boulevard and Whitelock Parkway.

The City combined multiple funding sources to make this project possible. We were successful in securing both state and federal grants to supplement Capital Improvement Program (CIP) funding, and we will use local funds through the gas tax, Measure A, Measure E and roadway fees.

To explore what traffic signal improvements are occurring near your neighborhood, view our interactive map. Proposed improvements are classified into Signal Modifications and Communication Upgrades, or a combination of both. 

Proposed improvements are classified into the following:

• Circle Symbol = Signal Modifications
• Triangle Symbol = Communication Upgrades
• Square Symbol = Combination of signal modifications and communication upgrades

To explore what improvements are occurring near your neighborhood, use the search button located on the right side of the map, or select from the list of intersections on the left side of the application. The chart and the list of improvements on the right will dynamically update to reflect the improvements associated with each traffic signal.

If you want to see the traffic signals undergoing specific improvements, simply click on the Query by Improvement Tab on the left side to filter and view the traffic signals related to your interested improvement.

The project's construction contract was awarded in spring 2024 and the contract procurement was completed in late 2024. Construction is now kicking off and citywide improvements are anticipated to be complete by the end of 2025.
