Ford Mobility's Kerbspace Hack is a two-day innovation sprint inviting tech experts to generate intelligent solutions using the Kerbspace API portal and data that can help improve kerb space in London.
About Kerbspace Solutions Digital Kerbspace is a suite of bespoke solutions that have been developed in collaboration with city and local
government partners to manage their kerb space more effectively.
Challenge Traffic congestion, emissions, road accidents, etc. limit the efficiency of urban transport systems. Kerb plays a pivotal role in transforming urban transport systems, not just for on-street parking but as pick-up/ drop-off points, delivery hotspots, parking new mobility vehicles, etc.
Participants will be challenged to design a solution that would improve or optimise mobility utilising kerb assets - today and in the future.
Teams will choose one of the three challenges to focus on: Cities Commerce Citizens
