We are so proud to have this great project with Miami Parking Authority recognized by International Parking & Mobility Institute (IPMI) as a demonstration of innovation in a mobility, transportation, or parking program.

2024 Honorable Mention for Innovation in a Mobility, Transportation, or Parking Program (sub-category: Innovation and Technology): Digital Smart Zone Program, submitted by Populus. Demand for general parking in Miami’s commercial districts has grown, leading to more cases of non-commercial vehicles parked illegally in loading zones. Unavailable loading zones lead to a rise in dangerous and illegal parking. To address the problem, the Miami Parking Authority (MPA) launched the Digital Smart Zone program to provide commercial fleet operators with seamless access to curb space without the need for hardware or an app download. The program is designed to achieve operational improvements in parking, transportation, and safety in the city by enhancing efficiency, reducing congestion, and improving parking compliance. MPA worked with Populus to structure and implement the Digital Smart Zone program, which required digitizing curb inventory and aggregating parking data in the city’s two most congested neighborhoods. Digitizing policies for priority curb management zones into an industry-leading data standard will enable the city to share associated parking rules with connected fleets. The innovative program was made possible by leveraging industry-specific technologies like the Curb Data Specification (CDS), a digital tool from the Open Mobility Foundation. CDS provides the means for expressing static and dynamic regulations, measuring activity at the curb, and developing policies that create more accessible, useful curbs. Miami is also leaning on the CDS Events API as the standard framework for what is required of commercial fleet operators to enroll and participate in the Digital Smart Zones program and also to promote a higher rate of participation. Congratulations to Populus and all Apex Award winners and honorable mentions this year. Look for more award spotlights here on our social media as we get excited for the IPMI Parking & Mobility Conference & Expo next week in Columbus, OH.
