The City is working actively to prepare for what may come. We work with public and private partners and cities around the world to adopt best practices and focus on being at the forefront of technological advancements occurring in transportation. In order to understand the new data and information that advanced mobility affords us, we are building internal capacity to ingest data, with dashboards, visualizations, new tracking tools and the digital mapping of the curb. We are committed to both stimulating innovation and maintaining control of the public right of way while increasing and protecting the safety and security of people using our streets.
