Budget estimate

$200,000 – $500,000

Based on similar municipal signage projects, a single SMART20 system (including hardware, software, installation, and training) typically ranges from $150,000 to $300,000 per crossing. Assuming the city requires 2‑3 units, the total contract value is likely between $200,000 and $500,000. This estimate factors in equipment cost, labor for installation, project management, and a short warranty/maintenance period.
