Main Street SMART Corridor Plan Funded by: NYSERDA/NYSDOT PON 3345: Making Transportation Smart and Sustainable Primary Goal: Create a greener, safer, more efficient, and connected multi-modal transportation system for the future Main Street Corridor through Smart Cities and Internet-of-Things applications.
Main Street SMART Corridor Plan Steering Committee: BNMC-TMA Member Organizations and Utility Companies Project Management Team: &
SMART Corridor Focus Areas • Complete Streets • Traffic, Curbside, Parking Management • Mobility as a Service (MAAS) • Connected/ Autonomous Vehicles • Public Safety, Emergency Services • Inclusive/ Universal Design • Energy, Lighting & Utilities; EV Charging; Green Infrastructure • Data Management/ Exchange • Focus on Implementation Funding Models • Legal & Policy Issues •
Main Street SMART Corridor Plan Scope of Work: Task 1: Review Existing Plans and Conditions Task 2: Research Best Practices, Opportunities and Challenges We Are Here… Task 3: Develop Smart Corridor Recommendations
Columbus, OH 4 Emerging Technologies • Smart Columbus Operating System- web based data management and open-data platform • Columbus Connected Vehicle Environment (CVE) • Enhanced Human Services (Hubs) • Electric Vehicle Infrastructure $40M grant leveraged with $510M in additional funding
Columbus, OH Smart Columbus Sandbox • Open data made available through Sandbox • Users can also upload their own data • Data is broken down into degrees of privacy; some requires “scrubbing”
Kansas City, MO • 2.2- mile streetcar corridor • $50M TIGER Grant & public/ private partnership with Cisco and Sprint - $15.7M • Cisco and Sprint receive exclusive access to data usage • RFP to attract additional investors • Partnered with Rockhurst University on open data portal (series of “How To” videos) • Wiki format on what data is usable
Atlanta, GA • 2.3- mile North Avenue Corridor • Hundreds of sensors; video detection system for real-time traffic management, adaptive signal timing, and framework for CV/AV • Users can sign into app as driver, pedestrian, cyclist, transit users to get real-time info • Digital Mobility Center (City of Atlanta)
Atlanta, GA • Partnership with Georgia Tech (GT can analyze data) • North Ave project is $3M, funded thru Atlanta’s Smart City Project ($250M bond) • Additional ½ cent local options tax raised $300M for Atlanta Smart City Project • Looking to leverage PPP – City is establishing “backbone” with public funds; draw private investment in technologies that utilize “backbone” • Issued RFP for local investors
Applying SMART City Technologies to Main St Framework Begins with Smart Street Lights Lighting Traffic/ Curbside/ Parking Management Weather/ Environment Safety & Security EV Charging/ e-Mobility WiFi/ Info/ 5G

Smart Street Lights Pedestrian Safety
Traffic/ Curbside/ Parking Management • Real-Time and Dynamic • Adaptive Signal Timing • Everything is Connected • Identification of Incidents • Flex Zones
Complete Streets Spragins Street Smart Cycle Track, Huntsville, AL • Street lights contain sensors that detect bicyclists and trigger traffic signals to provide priority • Can provide real time bicycling conditions, counts, peak periods
CV/ AV and MAAS • Smart Street Lights lay the foundation for additional components • Communication Onboard and Along the Street • Mobility Hub
Pilot Universally Designed Intersection Main Street & Summer St/ Best St • Use tactile and mobile technologies to navigate intersections • NYC pilot- 7th & 23rd • Communication to mobile devices
Energy & Utilities • Smart Streetlights • Utility and stormwater sensors • Identifying peak demands • EV charging • WiFi and 5G (and beyond)
Applying SMART City Technologies to Main St • Unified approach amongst stakeholders • Main Street as pilot/ future proof • Data Management could be housed in NITTEC • Leverage initial investment with public/ private funding • RFI’s • Value in data/ information and infrastructure • Use UB CV/AV pilot to establish policy for CV/AV and privacy • Data Management Plan/ Data Privacy Plan
