With more than five million residents, Atlanta, Georgia is the third fastest growing metro area in the nation. Faced with aging infrastructure, traffic congestion, and intermittent power outages, the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) needed smart, innovative battery technology that could fit into existing battery cabinets at old and high-traffic intersections.
In an effort to correct issues with reliability and intermittent power, GDOT created the Regional Traffic Operations Program (RTOP) to integrate smart, disruptive technology into Atlanta’s busiest arterial roadways.
