A new global web resource on ITS and road network operations is being unveiled at the 2015 6456 ITS World Congress in Bordeaux. Practitioner-oriented and structured for authoritative reference and training, the two-year joint effort between the 2137 World Road Association (PIARC) and 560 ITS America has enjoyed funding from the US Department of Transportation.

The launch will be centre-piece of a Congress special interest session on Tuesday 06 October at 1530hrs in Hall 02, Room 06. The website draws on the experience of an international team of 20 authors, including ITS International contributing editor David Crawford, under the editorship of European ITS veteran John Miles.

It is a development of an earlier, printed handbook edition produced by ITS International's sister company, Route 2 Market.
