What should I expect on installation day?

Context

You have an installation date confirmed and want to know what will happen on-site, whether tenants need to be notified, and whether there will be any disruption.

Answer

Installation is handled entirely by Autolane's field operations team. Here's what happens:

  1. Before the install: Your Autolane contact confirms the date in advance. All sign locations and GPS coordinates have been pre-approved during the site survey. Hardware arrives fully assembled and ready to deploy.

  2. During the install:

    • A small team (2–3 people) places freestanding signs at pre-approved curbside locations.

    • Signs use weighted bases, so there's no drilling or permanent modifications to the property surface.

    • Each sign's camera is activated and connected to the cloud platform.

    • The team verifies cameras are online and streaming data correctly, and confirms camera angles and sign positioning on-site.

    • A typical 2-zone deployment takes a few hours.

  3. After the install:

    • The Autolane engineering team validates the full data pipeline remotely, confirming vehicle events are captured, processed, and displayed on the dashboard.

    • Any issues discovered during validation are resolved before your dashboard onboarding call.

    • You'll be contacted to schedule a dashboard walkthrough within a few days.

Disruption: Minimal. No lane closures, storefront blockages, or interruption to foot traffic. Your Autolane City Manager is your on-site point of contact if any questions come up during installation.
