Urban SDK Partners With Orange County

Urban SDK, North America's leading traffic management software, is excited to announce that Orange County, Florida, has joined the growing list of agencies utilizing its innovative solutions for traffic calming and safety initiatives.

With a population exceeding 1.4 million residents and encompassing the city of Orlando, Orange County is one of Florida's most populous and rapidly growing areas. The county's decision to implement Urban SDK’s technology underscores its commitment to enhancing traffic safety and addressing public concerns.

Orange County, known for its bustling tourism industry and vibrant communities, faces unique traffic challenges. The county’s roadways see high volumes of traffic daily, particularly from visitors traveling to and from the region’s famous theme parks and attractions. To address these challenges, the county is focusing on traffic calming measures and implementation studies that will help reduce speeds, improve safety, and ensure smoother traffic flow.

Urban SDK’s traffic management platform is designed to assist counties like Orange in tackling these issues head-on. The platform provides comprehensive traffic speed data, allowing county officials to identify and monitor traffic hotspots, enforce speed limits, and implement targeted traffic calming measures where they are most needed. By leveraging this data, Orange County can make informed decisions that enhance road safety and respond effectively to public concerns.

"Orange County is an important addition to our growing list of Florida agencies," said Micah Dickman, AVP of Revenue at Urban SDK. "Their commitment to improving traffic safety and managing roadways more efficiently aligns perfectly with our mission. We are excited to support them in their efforts to create safer streets for all residents and visitors."

Urban SDK’s partnership with Orange County is particularly significant as the company continues to expand its footprint across Florida. With this addition, Urban SDK now serves roughly 40 agencies in the state, including Okaloosa, Pasco, Pinellas, and neighboring counties such as Polk and Seminole.

This widespread adoption is a testament to the effectiveness of Urban SDK’s traffic enforcement and traffic management platform.

Urban SDK’s platform provides Orange County with several key capabilities,

Traffic Speed Data

The platform collects and analyzes connected data on vehicle speeds, helping officials pinpoint areas where speeding is a persistent problem.

This data is crucial for making data-driven decisions on where to deploy traffic calming measures like speed humps, roundabouts, and other interventions.

Traffic Volumes

By understanding traffic volumes across different roadways, the county can better manage congestion and plan for future infrastructure improvements.

The platform’s ability to aggregate and visualize this data makes it easier for officials to communicate findings to stakeholders and the public.

Traffic Calming Implementation Studies

The platform enables detailed studies of potential traffic calming measures, allowing officials to simulate the impact of various interventions before implementation.

This approach ensures that the most effective measures are chosen, leading to better outcomes and higher public satisfaction.

Road Safety in the Sunshine State

Urban SDK is headquartered in Florida, making it particularly well-suited to understand and address the unique traffic challenges faced by the state’s municipalities.

The company’s deep knowledge of Florida’s roadway systems and its existing partnerships with numerous agencies across the state make it an invaluable partner for Orange County.

As Orange County continues to grow and evolve, its partnership with Urban SDK will play a crucial role in ensuring that its roadways remain safe and efficient.

By adopting Urban SDK’s advanced traffic management tools, the county is taking a proactive approach to traffic safety, setting a strong example for other regions to follow.
