Highway 68 and Traffic Signals

HIGHWAY 68 CORRIDOR TO MOVE TO ADAPTIVE TRAFFIC SIGNAL CONTROL BEGINNING MONDAY, MAY 4

MONTEREY COUNTY – Nine traffic signals on Highway 68 between San Benancio Road and Josselyn Canyon Road will operate under Adaptive Traffic Signal Control (ATSC) beginning Monday, May 4.

Implementation of the ATSC system comes after months of field testing and calibration which helped build the model for the new system.

The Board of Directors of the Transportation Agency for Monterey County (TAMC) voted in March 2025 to pursue a 5-year Adaptive Traffic Signal Control Pilot Project. Caltrans District 5 is excited to take a lead role in implementing this innovative pilot project in partnership with TAMC staff. 

The project team will continue to share analysis of the ATSC system with the TAMC Board of Directors and provide regular updates throughout the life of the 5-year pilot project.

Road information and updates can also be found on Caltrans District 5 Social Media platforms: Twitter at: CaltransD5, Facebook at: Caltrans Central Coast (District 5) and Instagram at: Caltrans_D5. 

Our crews deserve to get home safely too.

Drive slowly and carefully in work zones.
