Systems and methods for controlling traffic at an intersection are provided. A controller receives data from a vehicle detection device indicating a presence or non-presence of vehicles within a first area forward or adjacent to the stop sign. The controller receives data from a cross-traffic vehicle detection device indicating a presence or non-presence of vehicles within a second area rearward of the stop sign. Where data is received indicating the presence of at least one vehicle within the first area and the non-presence of any vehicles within the second area, the controller commands a traffic signaling device for the stop sign to temporarily cease providing the wait signal and instead provide the proceed signal.
