Faced with an ever-increasing economic loss due to traffic congestion and accidents, the metropolitan toronto authorities investigated the possibility of improving conditions through the use of a general-purpose digital computer to optimize in real time and on line the operation of traffic control signals. Following the successful conclusion of a small-scale pilot project, approval was obtained for a completely integrated system designed to incorporate some 1000 signals distributed in complex network formation throughout an area of 240 square miles.
