Case Study: MATA cuts bus travel times by up to 20% with Miovision Opticom TSP

MATA cuts bus travel times by up to 20% with Miovision

The Memphis Area Transit Authority (MATA) faced significant delays and rider frustration on its two busiest corridors, Poplar Avenue and Elvis Presley Boulevard. These constant delays caused buses to idle in traffic, increasing fuel costs and impacting the entire system's reliability. To address this, MATA partnered with Miovision and implemented its Opticom Transit Signal Priority (TSP) solution to create smarter traffic signals.

Miovision's solution provided real-time traffic signal adjustments that prioritized buses without disrupting normal traffic flow. This implementation resulted in a 20% reduction in bus travel times, saving over 7,000 rider hours per year and creating $200,000 in annual operating savings for MATA. The success also unlocked a potential 10% increase in ridership, demonstrating the significant impact of Miovision's technology.
