Curb management for fast-changing cities

Seattle Department of Transportation’s Curbside Management team began working with Coord in 2019 to improve our curb digitization effort. They helped us identify detailed opportunities to improve how SDOT records curb assets so that our data can be more accurately digitized for external users. Coord maps were invaluable for rapid assessment of temporary loading with the COVID-19 pandemic to provide Seattle restaurants with appropriate food pick-up areas. Coord staff’s excitement and willingness to solve curbspace data management problems is inspiring. 

"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."
