means of launching adoption Additionally, much interest in the mobility data capture area and the e-

payment areas

Some common themes: Bold, transformative vision is good, but the plan should provide an

incremental approach that can focus and deliver solutions in 5 years

Consistent support for standards

Common reference to ITS as a tool for measuring system performance and enhancing it

Thoughts provided on new ways to expand partnerships and stakeholder engagement


Program proposal must support ITS Program goals and objectives

Focused on large, multi-modal research efforts of national importance

Federal role must be clear and justifiable

Expected to offer a positive, measurable return on investment

Must have champions committed to research success

Will be a market catalyst

Must show strong desire for joint funding so that resources can be

leveraged for common purposes

Must deliver research results in 3-to-5 years, and must be

implementable

Must address institutional, regulatory and policy issues as well as

technology issues
