Raleigh’s rapid growth is pushing city leaders to rethink how they manage everything from traffic to long-term planning, and they’re turning to a digital twin to do it. By blending real-time camera data with AI and mapping tools, the city is building a virtual model that highlights congestion, tracks movement, and reveals where safety problems emerge. For now it covers a dozen intersections, but officials envision a citywide tool that guides everything from accident response to infrastructure design — a way to better understand a fast-changing city in near real time. Kaitlyn Levinson with Route Fifty has the full story.
