I-STREET Living Lab
I-STREET is a “living lab” on the University of Florida’s (UF) campus, surrounding roadway networks, and across the state of Florida. Advanced technologies such as autonomous vehicles, smart devices, and sensors are tested and deployed to enhance mobility and safety. I-STREET is a collaboration between the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), the City of Gainesville (CoG), and University
of Florida’s Transportation Institute (UFTI) to further advance transportation technology development
and deployment. The Gainesville I-STREET network is connected to the CoG’s Smart Traffic Center and
offers an ideal testing location for technologies related to all modes of transportation.
