DISCUSSION
Traffic volumes in Downtown Santa Ana have increased in recent years due
to local and regional growth. The current traffic signal control system
is outdated and not capable of responding to changes in traffic volumes
and traffic patterns (Exhibit 1). This project will upgrade the traffic
signal system in the downtown area by providing installation of traffic
communication infrastructure and replacement of outdated equipment,
including cabinets and signal controllers.
The Notice Inviting Bids was advertised on July 20 and 22, 2005, and
