Six Customers Pilot Remix for Street Design

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Remix, the platform used by more than 300 cities around the world to plan their transportation future, announced that six municipalities are piloting functionality for street design.

Building on their roots in transit planning, Remix brings together reliable access to urban data with a user-friendly sketching platform, to allow for a completely new way to explore and communicate transportation concepts.

Remix selected the following partners based on their projects and staff:

1. City of Eugene, OR is reshaping their downtown street grid and expanding their network of  protected bikeways
2. Montgomery County, MD recently designated 30 Bicycle and Pedestrian Priority Areas
3. Miami-Dade County, FL adopted a Complete Streets Resolution and a Transportation Quick-Build Program
4. Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority, CA earmarked $250M for active transportation projects and formalized a Complete Streets Policy
5. TransLink in Metro Vancouver, British Columbia is adding four high frequency, rapid routes as part of a $2B transit expansion plan
6. City of Grand Rapids, MI is implementing an award-winning Vital Streets Plan

According to John "JT" Thomas, Manager of Transportation Planning, Montgomery County DOT, "Creating and communicating concepts for safer streets within our teams and the community using Remix is lightning fast and efficient. The Remix team is super responsive and a great product gets better every day." 

"By utilizing this technology, we're able to better see and understand how our streets will look, drive, ride and walk after significant changes. This allows us to design a more connected community and helps us create a safer transportation system, a key goal for the City," said Reed Dunbar, Bicycle and Pedestrian Planner, City of Eugene.

Remix Helps Cities Redesign Streets to Meet the Needs of People
Mobility options have exploded in cities, and allocation of street space continues to be a ferocious battleground. As private vehicles and operating companies compete for public space on streets, cities will need to take an even more proactive role to establish human-centered policies.

"Remix empowers cities to take a proactive role in reclaiming their streets, and ensure redesigns improve safety, and promote equity and sustainability," said Tiffany Chu, co-founder at Remix, and head of the company's expansion into street design.

Remix expects to make their street design functionality available to the broader community in Fall 2018.
