Case Study: City of Richmond achieves faster traffic-count response times and centralized mobility data with UrbanLogiq

Reducing Traffic Volume Request Response Times With the City of Richmond, B.C.

The City of Richmond, B.C., a fast-growing municipality with roughly 1,586 inductive loop sensors plus traffic cameras, speed reader signs and pedestrian/bike counters, faced slow, manual processes to extract, clean and analyze mobility data. Responding to traffic volume inquiries could take staff up to a few hours. To address this, the City engaged UrbanLogiq and its cloud-based UrbanLogiq platform to centralize and streamline their traffic data analysis.

UrbanLogiq implemented a centralized, visual analytics platform that validates sensors, automates metrics (ADT, AADT, PHF, PHV), supports custom volume reports and unlimited data exports, and enables secure collaboration with consultants. The City reports instant access to normalized data and 24/7 availability, real-time calculation of critical traffic metrics, and a drastic reduction in response time—saving staff hours per traffic count request—after deploying the UrbanLogiq platform.
