ITS America welcomes the 2014 ITS World Congress to a busy schedule of special events this week. Tuesday has been declared Emergency Responder Day in an effort to put a spotlight on what first responders do on the scene of an accident and how ITS developments can help their life-saving efforts run smoother, faster and safer. Anyone in uniform will be granted entry to the World Congress for free throughout the day and can attend two special sessions focused on emergency response.
The 2013 ITS World Congress has awarded the 2013 Intelligent Transport Systems Industry Award to Transport Certification Australia (TCA) for its pioneering work in telematics and cooperative intelligent transport systems. Congratulating TCA, ITS Australia Chief Executive Officer Susan Harris said the international recognition for TCA’s contribution was well deserved. “TCA has been a creative and confident leader in a complex sector of the ITS industry,” she said.
