What is ITS ? – words
“ITS” is the term used to describe combinations of
sensors, telecoms, information processing, maps and
location referencing to deliver improved transport
systems, services and safety. ITS enable infrastructure
owners and operators to improve the quality of transport
services while also helping drivers, hauliers, transport
operators and authorities to make better informed, more
‘intelligent’ journey decisions. ITS can improve efficiency
through smarter network management and enhance road
safety through in-vehicle systems to support drivers – or
ultimately ensure collision avoidance.

•
Everything is becoming instrumented
Everything/everyone is becoming interconnected
Open Data is transforming transport markets
Consequently everything is becoming intelligent
Everything is interacting/intersecting (esp. in cities)
Huge increase in smartphone ownership
Huge increase in use of social media
The physical domain is becoming increasingly digital
This facilitates sharing and cross-over apps
Dgital transport domain becoming part of retailing
Owning infrastructure is becoming less valuable
Buying/using data opens many new options
Where do I think we’re going ?

Many EVs or hybrids using sustainable power
Cities rather than urban settlements
Pay-as-you drive on roads linked to carbon prices
Connected vehicles and infrastructure
External control for crash-proof vehicles
In-vehicle ‘black boxes’ for insurance and monitoring
Highly personalised information markets
Personal travel ‘shoppers’ and ‘tutors’
Reduced customer ‘lock-in’ by operators / manufacturers
Payment service providers / brokers
Permanently connected travellers via smartphones
Mobility rather than transport
The John Lewis/Virgin/M&S/TESCO mobility retailer
The ‘killer service’ will be an app store
What are the opportunities for you ?
