ITS Connections: Saving Time. Saving Lives.
The continuing goal of the World Congress on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) is to promote awareness and deployment of ITS technologies. ITS enables people to make transport choices that save lives, time, and money. With a focus on practical deployment, as well as on education and innovation, the World Congress on ITS enhances our ability to work together to provide users of the world’s transport systems new levels of safety, reliability, convenience, accessibility, and choice. Transport executives and ITS professionals from around the globe will come together at the World Congress & Annual Meeting in New York. We encourage you to join us at this landmark conference and exposition.
Registrants will have access to both the World Congress and Annual Meeting events, including more than 300 extraordinary education sessions, exciting tours, real-time demonstrations, a grand-scale exhibition hall, and limitless opportunities to connect with an international audience in a world-class city.
A broad range of technical tours will be available to delegates. These tours will feature state-of-the-art facilities, including the New York State Department of Transportation’s INFORM Center on Long Island, as well as transport facilities of major significance, such as the George Washington Bridge, known as “the busiest vehicular crossing in the world.”
This combined event will feature the largest fully-integrated demonstration of deployed and marketable ITS technologies ever. Vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside communication technologies and applications will be highlighted. The demonstration will include innovative mobility solutions operating on the streets and highways of New York and will build upon the success of the Innovative Mobility Showcase that proved to be of enormous interest at the 2005 San Francisco World Congress. Live demonstrations will showcase advanced ITS technologies that provide effective management of public facilities, protect public investment in transport infrastructure, and enhance and expand mobility options.
