1 What is ITS ? Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) means electronics, communications, or information processing used singly or in combination: to enhance surface transportation efficiency, reliability and facilitation of intermodalism; to enhance safe operation of motor vehicles and nonmotorized vehicles; and to protect and enhance the natural environment and other resources affected by surface transportation. Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) means electronics, communications, or information processing used singly or in combination: to enhance surface transportation efficiency, reliability and facilitation of intermodalism; to enhance safe operation of motor vehicles and nonmotorized vehicles; and to protect and enhance the natural environment and other resources affected by surface transportation.

4 ITS Examples on Federal Lands

5 ITS Under SAFETEA ITS can be found in several titles of the law, including Federal Aid Highways, Highway Safety, Public Transportation, Research, and Transportation Planning. Funds available for each class of Federal lands highway are available for ITS projects eligible for assistance under Title 23.

6 ITS Under SAFETEA The National ITS Architecture and Standards Program is continued in SAFETEA. The National ITS Architecture is a general framework for planning, defining, and integrating ITS. “Conformance with the National ITS Architecture” The National ITS Architecture and Standards Program is continued in SAFETEA.

7 Leveraging Regional ITS A regional ITS architecture is a specific regional or transportation service area framework States, MPOs, and local agencies would be required to develop and maintain a regional ITS architecture Different Types of “Regions” including rural corridors, tourist areas, National Parks, and potentially National Forest. Provision should be made to include participation from the Forest Service Which “Region” can you be a part of ?
