Populus operates as a mobility and curb management platform that helps cities manage and price access for commercial fleets, with the goal of easing congestion and promoting safer, more sustainable streets. Its service relies on GPS data from commercial vehicles to enable cities to create, manage, and enforce payments for curb access, supporting transitions to lower-carbon transportation systems. Based in San Francisco and active in the technology, information, and internet sector, Populus serves municipal clients worldwide and has pursued partnerships and program expansions to broaden its curb management capabilities. The company has publicly highlighted collaborations and client engagements in multiple cities, and it was acquired by IPS Group in late 2025, reflecting a broader move in smart mobility and curb solutions.
