Philadelphia, PA deploys AI on SEPTA trolleys to ticket blocking vehicles

Philadelphia is deploying AI-powered cameras on 30 SEPTA trolleys across six lines to detect vehicles illegally parked or stopped in trolley lanes and stops, marking the first U.S. city to use this enforcement approach on trolleys. Developed by Hayden AI, the system uses AI to identify obstructions, capture license plates, and send data via cloud for review and ticketing. This deployment builds on a successful 2023 bus pilot that recorded over 36,000 violations and improved travel times by 6%.
