Iteris to Deploy LA Metro’s Countywide Cloud-Based Transit Signal Priority Program
Iteris to provide LA Metro with design, integration, and operational support for countywide TSP system across 13 major corridors
SANTA ANA, Calif., Feb. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Iteris, Inc., the world’s trusted technology ecosystem for smart mobility infrastructure management, today announced it has joined forces with JMDiaz, Inc. and LYT to support the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LA Metro) in deploying a countywide cloud-based Transit Signal Priority (TSP) system across 13 major corridors in Los Angeles County. Iteris was awarded over $2 million for its role in this transformative project.
Iteris is working with JMDiaz to provide design services, integration, testing, and operational support for the new cloud-based TSP system, LYT.Transit, which will be implemented at over 320 signalized intersections. This initiative builds on the success of LA Metro’s earlier Inglewood pilot project, in which Iteris also played a key role, and represents a significant step toward improving bus speed, schedule reliability, and overall transit performance throughout the region.
The 30-month project—comprising a 12-month design phase followed by 18 months of operations and maintenance—is underway and expected to be completed by October 2027. The deployment will leverage existing on-board automatic vehicle location systems, fiber optic communications, deployment of wireless communication systems, advanced traffic controllers, and the LYT.Transit TSP solution to provide transit signal priority, reduce congestion, and enhance passenger satisfaction for Metro riders.
The 13 major corridors enhanced by this project include: Atlantic Blvd, Broadway Ave, Central Ave, Main St, Garvey Ave, Whittier Blvd, Slauson Ave, Florence Ave, Firestone Blvd, Long Beach Blvd, Santa Monica Blvd, Hawthorne Blvd, and Crenshaw Blvd.
“We are proud to partner with all stakeholders to help LA Metro significantly expand and advance the TSP infrastructure throughout Los Angeles County,” said Steven Bradley, senior vice president of mobility professional services at Iteris. “Having supported Metro in the successful pilot project, we are excited to scale this TSP approach countywide to improve transit efficiency and reliability for thousands of riders.”
