The Underline is a 10-mile linear park and the urban trail that runs from Coral Gables to downtown Miami. The smart lighting system that is implemented underneath the Underline not only provides lighting for the urban trail but improves pedestrian and bicyclist safety. Running alongside The Underline is US 1, a heavily congested street that acts as the main vehicular artery from Coral Gables to downtown Miami. As a result, pedestrians, runners, and bicyclists, continually have to navigate from The Underline to traffic stops and crosswalks which leads to a number of accidents. The smart lighting system proposed for the Underline communicates with US 1 traffic systems so that continuous pulses of light are coordinated with when pedestrians can cross the street. This helps occupants continue their running or biking throughout the Underline without having to pause and wait for the respective traffic lights so long as occupants remain under the pulse of light.
