Coord is an online platform that helps cities manage their curbs so that they can reduce congestion, improve safety and generate new revenue.
Reduce congestion, improve safety and generate new revenue by creating tech-enabled Smart Zones, zones that provide commercial drivers with advanced curbside intelligence to find places to load safely and efficiently.
To place Smart Zones where they’ll be used and needed, it’s important to know what the current rules and regulations are for your city’s curbs and alleys. Automatically combine asset data, municipal codes and parking prices to home in on the best spots to site the zones.
Collect or import demand data sources (occupancy, paid parking etc) and price your Smart Zones based on current needs and usage of your curbs. Hours and prices of Smart Zones can be adjusted at any time, as conditions change and new data comes in.
An asset-light approach means Smart Zones can be implemented and iterated quickly.
Fleet sign-up is also quick and simple with the Coord fleet portal, allowing fleets to pay for their drivers and manage their loading activity.
Analyze Smart Zone data in Coord’s dashboards, including the times of day drivers are most often loading and which zones are most popular. Use this information to adjust Smart Zone times and add locations to meet demonstrated demand.
In addition, provide your fleet partners with a dashboard to view their drivers’ zone usage and spend.
Coord helps cities develop curb use strategies, translate these strategies into specific curb permissions, and actively manage the way fleet drivers access curb space.
How many loading and parking spaces do we lose when we add a bike or bus lane?
How do I give commercial drivers incentives to use loading zones instead of double-parking?
How many curb spaces do we have in a permit zone relative to how many permits we’ve issued?
How do I encourage ride-hail to use designated pick-up/drop-off zones to reduce congestion & ensure safety?
How can I show residents and businesses the differences in alternative curb space use options?
What prices will improve parking availability and reduce congestion from drivers circling for parking?
With Smart Zones, Coord helps commercial and fleet drivers deliver efficiently and safely.
Minimize time taken for pick-ups & deliveries by routing to available curb space.
Reduce congestion and potential conflict for space along the curb.
Reduce tickets and tows by loading legally in dedicated, bookable loading space

"Since the City of Pittsburgh began using Coord to map curb assets and regulations, we've gained vast insights on how the curb is used, and how we might adapt it to better suit the needs of our city's changing mobility environment. From designating space for passenger loading zones, to identifying optimal spaces for bicycle infrastructure, the curb data collected and displayed via Coord will be immensely constructive. Thankfully, the experience has been easier to navigate than expected. Coord's customer service has been second to none, with easy-to-reach experts willing to help at every stage of the process"
"The City of Boulder is very happy to be working with the Coord team. Coord provides expertise and guidance in developing a curbside management inventory and strategy, and their customer service is stellar. Coord was able to integrate our existing datasets, and worked with our team to onboard and use the platform to work toward our goals. The toolkit Coord provides is dynamic and combines a variety of information, which we are using comprehensively in multiple work efforts."
"From deliveries to scooters, there is intense competition for curb space in Downtown Santa Monica. Having a complete picture of how, where and when our curbs are used helps us to adapt and designate the necessary space for our ever-changing environment while meeting the needs of our businesses and patrons."
