The US Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has awarded Iteris a five-year training contract worth up to $9 million.

Iteris will develop, update and deliver training, supplemental materials and services at the National Highway Institute (NHI).

The training will ensure that employees of the Administration can implement best practices for intelligent transportation systems, transportation performance management and freight programmes.

Iteris’ consulting services, a component of the ClearMobility platform, will support state-wide and regional ITS planning and deployment to encourage interoperability and connected and autonomous vehicle preparedness through in-class and online or remote workshops and training and technical assistance.

“The NHI’s training and development programme has been a vital source of education for transportation professionals in city and state agencies across the country,” said Moe Zarean, vice president and assistant general manager for transportation systems at Iteris.

ClearMobility continuously monitors, visualise and optimises mobility infrastructure, according to the company.

It applies cloud computing, artificial intelligence, advanced sensors, advisory services and managed services to help ensure roads are safe and travel is efficient.
