Abstract

Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) represent a sea of change in surface transportation, equivalent to the introduction of air traffic control systems into air transportation. ITS represents a major opportunity for the transportation profession to evolve to a more sophisticated level. This study looked at the following aspects of ITS: integrated systems; regional systems; partnerships; institutionalization of operations; political support and public acceptance; human resources; and travelers as customers. The papers presented provide insight into successes that have occurred as well as impediments to further successes.
