Scheduled Flash
Traffic signals can operate in scheduled flash mode as a time-of-day
operation (nighttime flash). Nighttime flash can reduce delay at
intersections operating in the fixed time mode. Scheduled flash mode
typically uses the yellow-red flash type operation. Nighttime flash
should not be used at fully actuated intersections unless all other
intersections in the area operate nighttime flash. Again, driver
expectation is a major factor in this decision.
