The Western States Transparent Borders Project involved an assessment of the institutional barriers to implementing transparent border technologies for interstate commercial vehicle operations (CVO) in Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The project team determined that the key barriers to transparent border system implementation are: (1) a lack of a mandate from top management or the low priority of commercial vehicle operations within various state agencies; (2) a lack of communication about the status of, need for, cost of, and benefits from intelligent vehicle highway system (IVHS) CVO initiatives between and within state agencies; (3) a lack of a compelling argument to expend scarce resources on IVHS CVO initiatives; and (4) a lack of standards for technologies and procedures needed for IVHS CVO.
