Construction
Digital Access
As the Beltline enhances mobility through infrastructure, this Smart Corridor project includes installing 22 smart hubs of technology across the 18 miles of open Beltline trail. These sites will all include public Wi-Fi access zones and a digital wayfinding kiosk.
Near the Marketplace locations additional technologies will be piloted including smart trash cans and camera visualization AI technology. The Pittsburgh Yards access point and Freedom Parkway Marketplace locations will also include the Nourish+Bloom autonomous grocery container concept and EV Charging stations somewhat adjacent to the sites.
Project Status
Work is underway on multiple locations as our subcontractor eX2 Technology and their subcontractors continue to advance site development and implementation work for our digital access and smart corridor project. Updates include:
Freedom Parkway site is mostly complete. Work includes installing utility cabinets and moving to permanent power. Final devicing work is also underway to include public Wi-Fi and camera visualization technology. Punch list items and interior build-out continues to get the Nourish + Bloom autonomous grocery ready for opening.
At the Irwin location, site restoration work and beautification are underway. Final devicing work is also underway to include public Wi-Fi and camera visualization technology.
At the Pittsburgh Yards and Glenwood locations, final devicing work is underway to include public Wi-Fi.
The process to get permanent power in place is underway at the Washington Park and Milton sites. Boulevard and Hill Street have all been staked and are awaiting next steps from Georgia Power for advancing permanent power.
Edgewood, New Realm, PCM, and 10th & Monroe sites are staking and being finalized. Pre-work is underway with Georgia Power.
Installation of safety and silt fencing will occur around all construction areas as required.
No permanent blocking of pedestrians/trail will be done and any temporary moving of equipment through and in this area will utilize cones and a person for traffic control.
