Abstract:This report describes the work of the study, “Systems Planning for Automated Commercial Vehicle Licensing and Permitting Systems.” The objective of this study is to define the market, organization, and resource requirements for a national program for the application of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) to commercial vehicle operations (CVO). The report assesses the public and private sector markets for ITS/CVO products and services. The public sector analysis includes a review of the major CVO regulatory processes, the level and distribution of transactions, and the major regulatory issues relevant to the development of a national ITS/CVO program. The private sector analysis includes an examination of how major operating characteristics such as fleet size and geographic range shape the trucking industry’s need for new technologies; the identification of major freight generation centers and freight corridors in the United States: and a description of the major regional markets in which the motor carrier industry operates. In addition, the report reviews more than 50 government and public/private initiatives to develop, test, and deploy elements of the ITS/CVO program in four areas: credentials administration, enforcement, fleet and vehicle management, and highway traffic management. Finally, the report reviews the ITS/CVO program’s current market, organization, and resource strategies, and recommends new directions and strategies to strengthen the program.
