Abstract:In 1997, the 5 ITS ministries and the agency committee laid out the ITS model experiment plan as a strategy for the Comprehensive ITS Plan, and decided to conduct a feasibility study (FS) of the experiment plan in the 3 years from 1997 to 1999.
The Feasibility Study Committee was set up by representatives from the 5 ministries and the agency, academic circles, and related organizations in Japan to provide opportunities for discussions on the promotion of the model experiment plan. VERTIS was also established as an office for the overall FS.
In 1997, hearings were conducted with intellectuals about their ideal image of model areas, and surveys on model experiments , mostly in Europe and North America and ITS awareness and attitudes toward it among local municipalities in Japan. Based on what we learned, a proposal was submitted to the FS Committee that Japan urgently implement model experiments.
