The International Municipal Signal Association was founded in 1896.
Membership is made up of persons employed by a governmental organization (city, state, federal, provincial, etc.) and private corporations who are interested in promoting public safety. The Association's objective through education and certification is to improve the efficiency, installation, construction, and maintenance of public safety equipment and systems by providing information to its membership on traffic signals, fire alarm systems, radio communications, signs and markings, roadway lighting, public safety dispatching and other related systems.
The IMSA Northwest section is made up of those members residing in the states of Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington. Section Meetings are attended by IMSA members and other interested persons in the area. The meeting format allows for personal contact with exchange of ideas between participants. Mutual problems are discussed and solutions are presented. In addition, technical papers on a variety of helpful topics are presented by members, engineers, and other experts.
