Australia will welcome international experts working at the leading edge of intelligent transport systems to speak at the ITS Summit to be held at the Australian Technology Park in Sydney from 18 to 20 September 2013.

The international input will add value to progress the Summit's key objective to formulate a national vision for ITS in Australia. 858 ITS Australia Chief Executive Officer Susan Harris said the aim is to define a plan with a core set of transport priorities broadly acknowledged across all government jurisdictions, which are actively supported by both the research community and the private sector.
