Boston erected America’s first lighthouse in 1716 to safely guide sailors along our shores. Nearly two centuries later, Boston built the first subway in the United States. Today, Boston continues to be first in transportation innovations through our Boston Smart Streets program, which incorporates the newest technology to make our streets safe. Feinberg & Alban PC also has a long history grounded in outside-the-box thinking. We have helped auto accident victims for more than 70 years by employing the most advanced investigative tools and strategies available. We also work on programs to prevent future accidents to create a safer Boston for everyone.
Smart Streets uses technological innovations to make Boston’s streets safer. Using such technology as sensors and cameras, the city learns about how drivers, pedestrians and cyclists navigate the roads and interact with the streetscape and each other. Smart Streets is part of the global Vision Zero initiative, which strives to eliminate serious accidents. Boston is proud to be a leader in accomplishing this goal, and our firm is proud to support those efforts.
An exciting Vision Zero pilot program has been implemented at the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue and Beacon Street. Data being collected at this intersection includes:
Vision Zero emphasizes that the data will not be used to issue traffic tickets. Instead, this information helps shape comprehensive recommendations for traffic safety. Our lawyers use these types of factors in our investigations and case strategies.
Boston is well known for our progressive approach to problems. The Smart Streets program applies this forward thinking to improving traffic flow, parking and general safety on Boston’s streets, including:
Our attorneys believe that using technology can drastically improve traffic safety. These types of technological tools support our dual goals of preventing Boston auto accidents and helping victims of accidents recover.
