The City of Rogers is engaged in a project to coordinate traffic signals along major streets in Rogers .  This GPS controlled system is intended to minimize the times a driver will stop as they drive down a stretch of these streets .  Signals are timed based on the speed limit and the distance between intersections .
   Roads that are currently completed are Walnut St . from 8
   th
    St . to 40
   th
    St . and 8
   th
    St . from Hudson Rd . to Price Ln .  On the docket to be completed next are Hudson Rd . , Olive St . and New Hope Rd .  Arkansas St . will also have its traffic signals coordinated in the future .
   “Maximizing the efficiency of our transportation systems requires an ‘all of the above’ approach . Traffic signal optimization is just one way the City is making the most of what we have while we continue to create ways to avoid our busiest streets . ”
    - John McCurdy , Director of Community Development - City of Rogers
   These improvements are being provided via a contract with Traffic Engineering Consultants , Inc .  The immediate changes are an inexpensive way to get the most out of the technology that is currently in place in Rogers .  Cyclical readjustments are being considered for the future , in order to maintain the best traffic signal timing alignment .
