TTS Italia has welcomed the official approval of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport’s new policy document ‘To connect Italy: needs and infrastructural projects’, which identifies a work programme extending until 2030. Major policy themes highlight roles for shared infrastructures and modal integration while for cities, the focus is on sustainable and shared mobility, and rapid mass transport.
According to the association, the document reflects its own emphasis on the role of ITS in optimising the use of existing transportation assets by supporting their technological upgrading to increase capacity at considerably lower cost than funding new construction.
