Saison 1 · Épisode 12

jeudi 15 janvier 2026 • Durée 38:20

Toronto has the worst traffic on the continent, but there are smarter ways to fix it.

They break down why traffic lights often fail to sync, what causes coordination failure and split failure, and why relying on one day of traffic counts every few years leads to bad decisions and public distrust. Kurtis explains how Miovision measures traffic flow continuously, helps cities act proactively instead of reactively, and builds what he calls the smartphone of the intersection.

The conversation also covers transit signal priority, why the Finch West LRT can be improved with better signal timing, and what Toronto can learn from other cities that have scaled smart traffic infrastructure instead of piloting forever.
