CV Sync is an innovative approach to improving how residents and visitors travel in the Coachella Valley. The project consists of upgrading existing traffic signal controllers and revolutionizing the way traffic is managed by using the latest off-the-shelf technologies to coordinate traffic on major roadways. The first phase of CV Sync will focus on Highway 111, Ramon Road and Washington Street. Ultimately, the project will include 52  corridors in the Coachella Valley

CV Sync will establish a framework for future “smart region” by installing highly technical hardware and software systems connected into a world-class, regional network. CV Sync will have technology that allows all cities to communicate and coordinate in real-time to manage traffic flow, which will be especially useful for the large events that draw hundreds of thousands of tourists to the Coachella Valley. This project will also deploy fiber-optic broadband technology throughout the Coachella Valley, which can help to unlock federal and state funding opportunities. CV Sync also includes improved communication to motorists.
