Well, the first one that was used was in 1912 in Salt Lake City by Lester Wire, but the first one permanently installed was probably one in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1914. It was installed by the American Traffic Signal Company. These first ones only had red and green lights (like previous ones that used gas lighting in England). The three color ones were developed in 1920.
