The US Department of Transportation (USDoT) is seeking public comment on how Vehicle to Everything (V2X) technology should be integrated into the transport environment.
The organisation says it intends to maintain the priority use of 5.9Ghz spectrum for transportation safety communications. It points out that the automotive industry and local authorities “are already deploying V2X technology and actively utilising all seven channels of the 5.9 GHz band” and says that technology such as Cellular-V2X (C-V2

It points out that the automotive industry and local authorities “are already deploying V2X technology and actively utilising all seven channels of the 5.9 GHz band” and says that technology such as Cellular-V2X (C-V2X) and 5G are also in the mix.
In particular, USDoT says it would like thoughts on “issues ranging from the use of alternative and emerging communications technologies to support V2X, to the challenges associated with achieving interoperability while accommodating technological change”.

Professional Pavement Products (PPP) and president Greg Driskell are unveiling the Lanealert2x pavement marking for the first time internationally. The solution is designed to combat wrong way collisions. LaneAlert 2x, according Driskell, is a polyurethane marking that can appear as a white or yellow line that changes to red or uses arrows when drivers are going the wrong way. Additionally, PPP has developed directional messages that provide Do Not Enter and Wrong Way alerts. “We love this technology an
Hosted by ITS Australia in partnership with the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads, the ITS Summit on Connected Autonomy in Smart Cities takes place on 23-24 May at the Queensland University of Technology.
The growing international focus on smart cities where transport, utilities and healthcare communicate with each other to allow coordination and reduce waste, is a key driver for the provision of intelligent infrastructure across the road network. Such initiatives are being actively pursu
Australian company Aldridge Traffic Controllers (ATC) is throwing the spotlight on its new traffic controllers which support the sixth generation of SCATS (Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System). The VC6 version can cover up to 32 signal group configurations and is capable of accommodating 48 loops and eight pedestrian inputs. The system also includes conflict and lamp monitoring with 200m/s fault reporting, hot-swappable vehicle and external modules, Bluetooth data collection and integrated 3G/4G LTE
Oman has committed about US$14.8 billion, almost half of the country’s eight five-year development Plan for 2011-2015, to overhauling roads, ports and airports with the objective of linking the three modes of transport to improve interconnectivity. The third annual Oman Land Transport Infrastructure Summit 2013, 8-11 September, will spotlight the implementation and construction of transportation networks across the Sultanate with a focus on land transportation infrastructure, including roads, bridges, tunne
