*The term "Optimized" refers to traffic signal optimization, which is the process of changing the length of the green light for each traffic movement and the coordination between signalized intersections using a computer software program known as Synchro. Optimizing traffic signal timing reduces both idling and the acceleration of vehicles, leading to less fuel being burned and less carbon dioxide emissions.
