The national Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) program started with the Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems Act included in the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) in 1991. Related activities ongoing at that time as well as new efforts have been supported through this program both technically and financially. To move ITS from research, prototyping, and pilot projects into routine usage, decision makers at the corporate, state, regional, and local levels need reliable information about the contribution that ITS products can make toward meeting the demand for safe and efficient movement of people and goods. The experience of the US DOT has led to the definition of an Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure (ITI) consisting of traffic detection and monitoring, communications, and control systems required to support a variety of ITS products and services in metropolitan and rural areas. Whether infrastructure is deployed by the public sector, the private sector, or a combination of the two depends on the locality.
