Abstract:To identify and evaluate the institutional structures and working relationships associated with the deployment and integration of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) products and services at the Model Deployment Initiatives (MDIs), the Volpe Center staff visited the AZTech (Phoenix), iTravel (New York-New Jersey-Connecticut), Smart Trek (Seattle), and TransGuide (San Antonio) MDI sites and interviewed 59 representatives of public sector agencies. The information included in this report is based mainly upon the perspectives of the MDI participants but also includes other insights that were gained by the analysts from a review of documents from the MDI sites or through other work in assessing ITS deployments. This report is one in a series of products written for individuals who want to make intelligent transportation systems (ITS) happen; those who want to use advanced technologies to deliver government services more effectively and more efficiently. This report will help officials who currently are developing ITS in their location to accomplish their objectives by providing specific examples of what worked in other areas. The information that is presented also will allow officials who are considering deployment in their area to enter into the process from an informed perspective. This will enable them to make better, more knowledgeable decisions relative to their expectations, and consequently, their planning and development of ITS. By understanding what they may experience in later steps, project developers will have the opportunity to do things differently in earlier steps. This report was designed to allow you to navigate through it easily and to facilitate the use of the information contained in it. Clicking on any blue text will link you to the referenced item. This report contains several deployment aids. The appendices record material that has been developed and used successfully within ITS projects. These appendices are referenced throughout the text of the report. Whenever information contained in an appendix is discussed, the appendix number follows the discussion. The appendix can be viewed by clicking on the appendix number. Also, there is a table of questions at the end of each section. These questions are presented to elicit consideration of steps that may expedite the development of ITS in your region. These tables are also grouped together at the end of this document so that all the tables may be printed at one time. Figures, tables, appendices and acronyms & abbreviations.
