The trend is to regulate and take control of bus services and place communities at the center of services, check out the example of Greater Manchester, a true SMART city. The mayor described it as a “a coming-of-age moment” for English devolution. “With the launch of the Bee Network, Greater Manchester is blazing a trail for other city-regions who are ready to follow our lead in reversing the failed bus deregulation experiment and creating an integrated transport network that is run in in the interests of, and accountable to, our communities.” https://lnkd.in/d5TBGdc5

“In many cases IT leaders and staff are at the forefront of these efforts, helping to identify the most appropriate solutions and ensure that technology is working as it should. Here four city IT leaders discuss how they are putting IT to work in intelligent ways to help make their municipalities more efficient and smarter.”

Agenicies that received 2022 Safe Streets for All awards are posting RFPs to support their efforts. Using AI with video is now a proven way to quantify and prevent near-miss events that could result in fatal and serious injury crashes. Miovision has capabilities that have been published by TRB and use kinetic theory to quickly and accurately identify effective low-cost/ high-impact countermeasures. This research shows 94% validated accuracy of risk indicators to predict injury collisions, 80% typical risk reduction achieved when responding to these diagnostics, and 36-times faster measurement of safety improvement compared to crash data (you know in a month, instead of waiting three years!). Relying on historical data will not save lives. Join this webinar and reach out to us to learn more. The USDOT is investing billions of dollars in safety right now, and we need to get this right!
