City of Woburn Partners with Urban SDK to Address Public Speeding Concerns

Urban SDK expands in New England with Woburns traffic safety initiative.

Urban SDK Partners With Woburn

The City of Woburn, Massachusetts, has officially partnered with Urban SDK to tackle public speeding concerns and improve traffic safety.

With a population of roughly 40,000, Woburn joins a growing list of municipalities across New England that are using Urban SDK’s advanced traffic management platform to enhance roadway safety and streamline traffic data analysis.

Urban SDK’s technology enables cities like Woburn to monitor speeds on their roadways, identify high-risk areas, and implement data-driven traffic calming measures by using traffic speed data. This partnership will empower Woburn’s officials to respond more effectively to public speeding complaints and improve the overall safety and mobility for residents and visitors alike.

“We are thrilled to work with the City of Woburn in their efforts to address speeding concerns and make their streets safer," said Urban SDK’s Mason Yost. "[Our] platform will help city officials make informed decisions about how to best allocate their resources, and is another step forward in building safer communities across Massachusetts.”

Addressing Traffic Safety Challenges in Woburn

The City of Woburn, like many other municipalities, has faced challenges in managing traffic safety since 2020. With a mix of residential and commercial areas, Woburn experiences varying traffic volumes, and speeding issues can arise in both high-traffic zones and quieter neighborhoods.

Until now, city officials have relied on traditional methods like radar enforcement and community feedback to handle these issues, but the partnership with Urban SDK will bring a more comprehensive, data-driven approach to traffic enforcement.

Urban SDK’s traffic management platform allows Woburn to gather detailed traffic speed data and identify problem areas more efficiently. By utilizing this technology, Woburn can:

• Address public complaints by verifying speeding patterns
  ‍
• Determine areas of need for the implementation of targeted traffic calming solutions
  ‍
• Identify areas where enforcement efforts need to be intensified for greater safety impact

The platform will also streamline Woburn’s data collection and analysis processes, enabling city engineers and traffic management teams to work more effectively and make quicker decisions regarding traffic safety.

A Growing Footprint in New England

Woburn is part of Urban SDK’s ongoing expansion in New England, joining other Massachusetts cities like Foxborough and South Hadley that have recently adopted the technology to improve traffic safety and data analysis.

The increased use of Urban SDK’s traffic management platform across the state highlights the growing recognition of the benefits that accurate traffic data and analytics bring to urban planning and public safety.
