Abstract

Approaches for managing transit signal priority (TSP) requests are disclosed. The arrival of a first transit vehicle at a transit stop is detected, and a first value indicative of an actual arrival time is stored in a memory in response to the arrival of the first transit vehicle at the transit stop. A processor determines from the first value whether or not the actual arrival time of the first transit vehicle satisfies a scheduling parameter. In response to the actual arrival time of the first transit vehicle not satisfying the scheduling parameter, a priority request device is enabled to make TSP requests. In response to the actual arrival time of the first transit vehicle satisfying the scheduling parameter, the priority request device is disabled from making TSP requests.
