JASON (FENG) XU, PE, PTOE, PMP Traffic Engineering Support coordination master plans for five different sub- regions within the Valley. The Master Plan will serve as a roadmap for all future signal coordination in the Valley. Second, update signal coordination timings for over 500 traffic signals with a goal of reducing travel times, delays and GHG emissions. The project began in January 2017 and is scheduled to be completed in January 2020. Design Services Safe Routes to School (SRTS), Pedestrian Improvements at Four Schools — City of Santa Monica, CA Mr. Xu serves as Project Manager as part of a multidisciplinary team leading the review of key findings of the Walk Audits conducted at each school location with City staff and seeking input from City stakeholders regarding key challenges and opportunities at each school site. He will also lead Iteris staff in supporting the design effort by providing Plans, Specifications and Estimates (PS&E) for the replacement of existing flashing beacons with Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) on Ocean Park at 16' Street and 18th Street; design of a southbound No Right Turn on Red restriction on 17th Street at Ocean Park Boulevard; and design of an eastbound No left turn during peak hours restriction on 16th Street at Ocean Park Blvd. Iteris will also provide Temporary Traffic Control Plans (TTCPs) suitable for submittal to the City of Santa Monica for temporary construction closures of 11 public roadways within the City. The project began in August 2017 and is ongoing. LA Metro Orange Line TSP, LA Metro — Los Angeles, CA Mr. Xu serves as Task Leader on the signal preemption phasing design for this Metro Orange Line Railroad Type Gate Operation Study. Iteris provided engineering services for the simulation of all at -grade busway crossings with city streets and PE&E for the pilot project crossing to improve safety and reduce travel times along Orange Line. Mr. Xu provided phasing schematics. The project began in September 2017. Mr. Xu's involvement on the project began in February 2018 and is ongoing Brookhurst Street/Road Traffic Signal Synchronization (TSS) Corridor — Orange County, CA, OCTA — Orange County, CA Mr. Xu serves as Task Leader to optimize traffic signal synchronization timing plans at 59 intersections along the 16.5-mile Brookhurst Street corridor. Development and implementation of this optimized cross -jurisdictional signal optimization iteriso involves OCTA, six local cities, and Caltrans. The project began in June 2018. Mr. Xu's involvement on the project began in June 2018 and is ongoing. The project is ongoing. Pacific Coast Highway Traffic Signal Synchronization (TSS), Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) — Orange County and City of Newport Beach, CA Mr. Xu is providing engineering support on this regional traffic signal synchronization project for OCTA. This project will: 1) develop a Plans, Specifications and Estimates (PS&E) package for approximately 11 miles of fiber optic cable, integration of three new High -Definition (HD) Closed -Circuit Television (CCTV) surveillance cameras, a new Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) sign and system; 2) upgrade 15 controllers to 2070 controllers for Caltrans and provide fiber optic communication connection to City Hall and Caltrans Traffic Management Center (TMC); 3) develop new timing plans for the entire corridor which include 4 timing plans; 3 weekday peak period timing plans and a weekend timing plan; and 4) provide 24 months of Operations and Maintenance (O&M) services to maintain the communication system as well the signal timing operations of the corridor. The project began in June 2016 and is ongoing. Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization (TSS) Program, Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) — Orange County, CA Mr. Xu served as Project Manager under an on -call project with OCTA. The projects included traffic signal system upgrade and signal retiming/ synchronization for three corridors (MacArthur Boulevard, Santa Margarita Parkway, and Bake Parkway) including 65 intersections. The project required cooperative efforts between seven cities, OCTA, and Caltrans. With this turn -key type project, signal systems on project corridors have been upgraded to meet the latest guidelines and requirements with safety features, efficient signal coordination operations, considerations of pedestrian and bicyclist, and "responsive" operation features. The system upgrades include fiber design and installation, cabinet and controller replacement, communication switch, customized cabinet cables, video detection, battery backup system, radio wireless communication, and deployment of TMC central program and integration. MacArthur corridor was finished in 2015. Santa Margarita Parkway and Bake Parkway are currently in continual monitoring phase.
