Abstract:The purpose of this research was to provide a
framework to guide the development and
deployment of an integrated statewide program for
intelligent transportation systems (ITS).ITS is a
critical component of the transportation
infrastructure that helps ensure the system operates
in the most efficient way possible every day and
night, and during all types of situations and weather
conditions. It helps travelers:
• Get to their destinations without getting lost.
• Know about changing weather and traffic
conditions that may impact their trip.
• Make multimodal choices in congested
corridors.
• Plan a reliable trip.
• Even evacuate safely in times of emergency.
Thus, ITS is an essential element of the Texas
Department of Transportation (TxDOT) value system
that needs to be sustainable into the future to help
the department attain its vision and goals in a
cost-effective manner.
