Version 2.0 of Canada’s ITS Architecture has been announced. Now more closely aligned with the United States National ITS Architecture, Version 6.1, it provides a TURBO Tool and guidelines for the development of regional ITS architectures. ITS User Services have also been expanded and reorganised to reflect new services and a new Border Information Flow Architecture (BIFA).

To facilitate maintenance of previously developed regional architectures, a mapping tool will be available shortly to link versions 1.1 and 2.0 of the ITS Architecture for Canada.
