Meanwhile, TTS Italia and Club Italia are organising the second edition of the conference "The New World of Technology Systems for Mobility," which will be held on 3 and 4 December, 2012, in Bologna.

The conference will provide an opportunity to present and discuss the contents of the ITS Action Plan that Italy must send to the 1690 European Commission by 27 August 2012, and to reflect on the related implications and opportunities for the entire field of ITS. Also for the second edition, the conference and exhibition format will give the widest possible space to all fields of application of ITS systems for the management of mobility and logistics, electronic ticketing and technologies applied to TPL.

On 5 December, at the same location, a workshop will be held,  organised by TTS Italia in collaboration with the IRF-2015 International Road Federation, member of the European ITS Advisory Group. The meeting aims to present the results of ITS Policy Committee, of which TTS Italia is part. The Workshop will be free of charge and open to anyone interested.
