Abstract:The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Beyond Traffic 2045: Trends and Choices
study indicates that many communities will experience rapid population increases and
rapidly growing demands on their transportation infrastructure in the next few decades.
The Smart City Challenge is designed to help cities begin to address the difficulties these
trends present. To show what is possible when communities use technology to connect
transportation assets into an interactive network, the Smart City Challenge will concentrate
federal resources into one medium-sized city, selected through a nationwide competition.
Funding of up to $40 million will go to the mid-sized city to demonstrate how advanced
data and ITS technologies and applications can be used to reduce congestion, keep
travelers safe, protect the environment, respond to climate change, connect underserved
communities, and support economic vitality.
