Miovision and 451 Research Report Finds North American Transportation Agencies at a Tipping Point for AI and Intelligent Mobility Adoption
Miovision, a global leader in intelligent mobility with over 20 years of experience and more than 5,000 customers across 68 countries, has released The State of Intelligent Mobility in 2026, a Pathfinder Paper authored by 451 Research. Published in February 2026, the report reveals where North American transportation agencies stand on digital transformation and AI adoption, and what it will take to close the gap.
“Intelligent mobility means a connected ecosystem of technologies driving improvements in efficiency, productivity, and safety, orchestrating everything into one single operation and solution.” — Kurtis McBride, CEO, Miovision
What the Data Shows
The 451 Research findings paint a clear picture of a sector moving forward, but unevenly:
– 38% of North American government agencies are in the mid-stage of digital transformation, planning strategies, but not yet in full execution
– 24% have no formal digital transformation plans in place
– 24% of government agencies have already scaled AI to production
– 38% are currently running AI in proof-of-concept
– 54% rely on federal grants or subsidies as their primary funding source for smart city initiatives
Why Cities Cannot Afford to Wait
The case for action is urgent. More than 40,000 people die in traffic crashes in the United States and Canada each year, making road safety one of the most pressing public health challenges in North America. At the same time, cities face growing pressure from rising pedestrian and cyclist activity, larger vehicles, expanding urban populations, aging infrastructure, and the imminent arrival of autonomous vehicles on public roads.
“The technology is ready. The biggest barrier for cities today is change management.” — Lyne Jacques, Chief Revenue Officer, Miovision
Built for Every Stakeholder in the City
Miovision’s intelligent mobility platform supports traffic engineers, transit agencies, emergency responders, fleet operators, pedestrians, cyclists, and OEMs through a single, open, secure, and interoperable system. The company has performed over 1.5 million traffic studies, operates the largest traffic study dataset in the world, powering its machine learning AI cameras, and recently launched Mateo, the first generative AI assistant built for transportation professionals.
For agencies navigating funding, Miovision offers a dedicated transportation grant guide to help cities align intelligent mobility investments with USDOT and federal funding programs. With 54% of agencies leaning on federal grants, knowing how to access that funding is increasingly a competitive advantage.
