About the Challenge
The Clearways Innovation Challenge, launched in 2018, challenged innovators to create a digital product that can help to keep clearways clear. Clearways data was made available as part of this innovation challenge, with participants asked to address the three problem statements that were identified as major issues hindering the effective use of clearways.
Problem Statements
- How can we improve driver's awareness of clearway restrictions?
- How can we improve how the TMC is notified of stationary vehicles in clearways, transit lanes or bus lanes?
- How can we advise a driver the location of their towed vehicle?
Outcomes
Clearway Tech by Jayen Ashar was chosen to progress through incubation. Clearway Tech automatically detects stationary vehicles in clearways and notifies the Transport Management Centre (TMC) using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms.
An interim report was produced by Clearway Tech in February 2020, with recommendations about data requirements for the possible trial and implementation of this solution in the future.
