Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, GB creates smart intersection with Vivacity road sensors

The council began the installation of 65 Vivacity sensors throughout the borough in 2022. A cluster of sensors in Brierley Hill will support a smart intersection at Venture Way and Mill Street by the end of 2023. Sensor data feed into Vivacity's Smart Junction platform for timely light changes based on current motor vehicle, bike, and pedestrian traffic. The AI-powered sensor network assists borough officials during the development of local solutions for traffic congestion and safety.

Cambridgeshire County Council, GB pilots AI-powered traffic sensors at East Road in Cambridge

The county's traffic team and the Greater Cambridge Partnership (GCP) installed Starling Technologies detectors for the trial. The detector's cameras discern travel paths and speeds through intersections by different modes of transportation. Traffic lights switch based on real-time determinations about road and sidewalk congestion once fully implemented. County officials will evaluate the potential impacts of the technology on traffic flow for cyclists and large groups of pedestrians.

New York, NY creates comprehensive view of local road use with trial of Viva's Near Miss sensors

The city's Department of Transportation manually gathers traffic counts at random intersections throughout the year. Viva's AI-powered technology replaces these counts at 12 intersections during the pilot. Near Miss discerns nine types of transportation including scooters, buses, and pedestrians. Real-time data on travel speed, near-miss events, and travel paths are sent to an internal dashboard. City officials will use Near Miss results when evaluating traffic safety and street design efforts.

Oregon City, OR adopts CityRover pothole detection system for improved street maintenance

The city's Public Works team installed CityRover on a street sweeper for comprehensive coverage of local streets. CityRover records footage ahead of the vehicle and identifies potential potholes using artificial intelligence. City officials view analytics on pothole severity within images sent to the CityRover dashboard. This AI-powered system combines with community service requests for a more responsive approach to road repairs.

Arlington, TX Freight Optimization Services Program streamlines traffic flow for commercial trucks

The five-year project connects 100 intersections throughout Arlington to a cloud-based prioritization system. Location data from Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) systems and mobile devices are communicated to traffic lights via the Smart Priority System. Truck drivers receive alerts on estimated times to green lights and ideal speeds for uninterrupted trips through intersections. This North Central Texas Council of Governments-funded project reduces emissions and traffic congestion.

Brossard, QC trials Kalitec's Earl traffic safety system for improved driving in school zones

The Educational Awareness Reward Light (Earl) system will be tested outside Académie Marie-Laurier for three months. Earl defaults to a red stop light when there are no vehicles on Stravinski Avenue. The light remains red for vehicles exceeding the 30-kilometer-per-hour limit and changes to green when approaching vehicles are at or below the limit. This system is solar-powered, easy to install, and gathers data useful in planning traffic calming measures.

Peachtree Corners, GA protects vulnerable road users through IoT collaboration with Spoke

The collaboration tests Spoke's VRU2X technology within the context of the city's Curiosity Lab infrastructure. VRU2X uses three components - C-V2X, 5G connectivity, and camera footage - for real-time communications between non-motorists and motorists. Ten updates per second to user displays ensure awareness of potential road safety issues by drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists. This pilot includes a partnership between Audi and Spoke on bike-to-vehicle safety solutions.

Culver City, CA reimagines street design for sustainable transit with MOVE Culver City pilot

MOVE Culver City used a quick-build approach to create a welcoming environment for multiple modes of transportation. The one-year pilot added 14 bus and bike platforms, 1.4 miles of protected bike lanes, and 2.6 miles of bus lanes. Leading Pedestrian Intervals were added to seven intersections for safer walking experiences. All-electric minibuses ran circulator routes to popular downtown destinations. Colorful mobility drop zones encouraged safe parking for shared micro-mobility users.

Solidaridad (Playa del Carmen), QI develops smart traffic light system in partnership with Telensa

The partnership will install telecell nodes in 4,000 streetlights during its initial rollout. Telecells connect wirelessly to the Telensa PLANet platform based in the city's Network Operations Centre. Real-time data on streetlight performance anticipate outages and future maintenance needs. PLANet also supports individual or group management of streetlights, allowing changes in brightness based on the time of day.

New York, NY experiments with neighborhood delivery microhubs for reduced vehicle emissions

The Microhubs Pilot begins with up to 20 curbside and off-street locations across the five boroughs in the summer of 2023. Parcel services drop their deliveries at neighborhood hubs for last-mile services via cargo bike or electric van. The city's Department of Transportation identified 23 potential partners through a Request for Expressions of Interest. Local officials will expand locations, technologies, and incentives for a two-year pilot from 2024 to 2026.

Leeds City Council, GB pursues smart traffic management with VivaCity's AI for Detection technology

Local officials installed 180 AI for Detection sensors at 25 intersections. AI for Detection monitors real-time multimodal traffic and communicates with existing signal controllers. VivaCity made the sensors compatible with Swarco, Tellent, and Yunex controllers commonly used by cities. This sensor network reduces congestion in high-traffic areas, prioritizes cyclists and pedestrians, and gathers data for future road projects.

Chicago, IL responds to road safety concerns with Smart Streets and Smart Loading Zone pilots

The Smart Streets Pilot Ordinance was approved in the wake of a 50% increase in traffic fatalities over a two-year period. The Smart Streets Pilot will use smart cameras on Chicago Transit Authority vehicles and light posts when issuing citations for parking in bus lanes or unsafe driving. Citations are sent by mail to registered owners after a 30-day warning window. The Smart Loading Zone Pilot supports virtual payments and zone management, thus reducing double-parking incidents.
