About This Trend

Increased dependence on e-commerce, food delivery, and ridesharing services has created conflicts over curbside space and a concomitant need to update curb pricing models. Transportation planners can use curb management tech to manage congestion, improve safety, and generate city revenue. It will be crucial to implement equitable curb management solutions that don't harm the most vulnerable. "Create a Curb-Management Framework in 7 Steps," from the January 2022 issue ofPlanning, discusses some key strategies for curb management in a time of technological change.
