The US 781 ITS JPO has announced it will host a free public meeting and webinar to obtain stakeholder input on concepts, opportunities and needs for the Integrated Dynamic Transit Operations (IDTO) operational concept. The public meeting, which is set for the afternoon of January 26 and morning of January 27, 2012 in Washington, DC, will also be webcast at no charge.

The overarching goal of the Transit Connected Vehicle for Mobility programme is to improve public transportation by increasing transit productivity, efficiency, and accessibility; mitigating congestion in an integrated transportation environment; and providing travellers better transportation information and transit services. Transit-oriented Connected Vehicle for Mobility applications support dynamic system operations and management, enable a convenient and quality travel experience and provide an information-rich environment to meet the needs of travellers and system operators across all modes.

The  IDTO public meeting will bring stakeholders together as part of an interactive forum to discuss opportunities, needs, transformative goals and performance measures. Outcomes from this workshop will provide an important foundation to the overall vision and an operational concept for IDTO. The first half of the public meeting will be delivered via webcast for those participants who are not able to participate in person. An electronic feedback form will be made available to allow participants to provide additional input.

The meeting will follow the 856 Transportation Research Board Annual meeting. Anyone planning to attend any part of the public meeting or wishing to participate in the three-hour webinar should register online by January 19, 2012 at %$Linker: External 0 0 0 oLinkExternal www.itsa.org/component/forme/?fid=6 Webinar false http://www.itsa.org/component/forme/?fid=6 false false%>.
