The 2013 European Congress in Dublin saw the official launch of 7433 ITS Malta, the world’s latest national ITS association. ITS Malta’s David Seisun said: “This is the first step in becoming an internationally recognised institution that focuses on Intelligent Transport Systems. Malta has always kept a small step back when it comes to ITS yet now with the help of the Government, ITS (UK) and other ITS organisations all over the world we have set sail with this organisation.”
