Abstract:In January 1996, US Department of Transportation Secretary Federico Pena unveiled the Operation Timesaver initiative at the annual meeting of the transportation Research Board (TRB). The Secretary set a national goal of building and deploying an Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure (ITI) across the US to save time and lives and improve the quality of life for Americans. Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure (ITI) is the infrastructure portion of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) in metropolitan areas. The ITI refers to those portions of ITS related hardware, software, services, etc. that today and increasingly in the future, will manage and support the transportation-related activities. This is typically happening first in metropolitan areas but is expanding to include specific commercial vehicle services and rural needs. This report summarizes the deployment of Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure (ITI) in the largest 75 Metropolitan Areas United States and answers the question: "What Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure is operational and in the field today?" This report showcases the deployment of the ITI components.
