"State DoTs are on the front lines of simultaneously providing safe and efficient transportation networks through building and maintaining their state's traditional infrastructure while planning to meet the challenge of future smart mobility through intelligent transportation systems," said Regina Hopper, president and CEO of ITS America, in a press release before the meeting.

DOT executives from Ohio, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Oregon, New Jersey, Washington, New Mexico, Tennessee and Michigan participated in the roundtable.
