Urban SDK Partners With City of Albany

The City of Albany, Georgia, with a population of approximately 72,000, has officially partnered with Urban SDK, a leading traffic management platform, to address public concerns about speeding and improve overall traffic safety.

Located in the heart of southwest Georgia, Albany is taking a proactive approach to managing its roadways by utilizing Urban SDK’s advanced technology to monitor traffic speed data and implement effective traffic calming measures.

The partnership comes at a time when Albany’s officials are looking for innovative ways to address public speeding complaints and optimize traffic enforcement across the city.

By leveraging Urban SDK’s powerful platform, Albany will now have access to traffic volumes and speed data, allowing the city to make informed decisions and enhance road safety for both residents and visitors.

“We are excited to partner with the City of Albany in their efforts to improve traffic safety and respond to public speeding concerns," said Urban SDK's Ross Loehr. "Our platform will provide the city with the tools they need to monitor traffic speeds, implement targeted traffic calming measures, and reduce speeding incidents. Together, we are working to create safer streets for Albany’s growing community.”

Tackling Speeding and Traffic Safety Challenges

As the county seat of Dougherty County, Albany faces significant traffic challenges, especially related to speeding and safety in residential and commercial areas. The city regularly receives public complaints about speeding on its roadways, creating an urgent need for data-driven solutions to address these concerns effectively.

With Urban SDK’s traffic management platform, Albany will be able to:

  • Monitor real-time traffic speeds to identify high-risk areas and determine where traffic calming measures, such as speed bumps or traffic enforcement, are most needed
  • Validate public speeding complaints by comparing reported speeds against actual data to ensure accurate responses and resource allocation
  • Analyze traffic volumes in different parts of the city to address congestion and ensure smoother traffic flow
  • Implement traffic safety initiatives using actionable insights drawn from comprehensive traffic data analysis
