Delegates to the 560 ITS America Annual Meeting will have an opportunity, on Sunday, April 21, of attending a unique event – the State DOT CEO Roundtable. Attendees will hear first-hand from more than 19 State DOT CEOs as they discuss how they are using technology to address their transportation challenges, what the results have been, and how their ITS strategy may change given the passage of MAP-21.

Never before have so many State DOT leaders come together to discuss in an open forum the issues that matter most to the ITS community, including deployment strategies and funding priorities to develop and maintain state and local transportation networks.

Open to all attendees, this Sunday session, which will run from 4:00 – 6:00pm, will be moderated by 7043 Tennessee Department of Transportation Commissioner and ITS America Annual Meeting Co-Chair, John Schroer, and Rhode Island Department of Transportation Director and AASHTO President, Michael Lewis.

It may seem too good to be true but US company Connected Signals is offering city authorities the equipment to provide infrastructure to vehicle (I2V) communications for free. The system enables drivers to receive information about the timing of signals they are approaching via the EnLighten smartphone app (or connected in-vehicle display).
