The Texas-Mexico border ITS assessment is the result of ongoing research being conducted under Focus Area 3--International Border Transportation Services--of the Texas A&M Intelligent Transportation Systems Research Center of Excellence (RCE). One of the main objectives of this focus area is to develop a intelligent transportation systems (ITS) assessment for the Texas-Mexico border area for the use of innovative technologies and procedures in the border area to address issues of congestion, safety, mobility, and system efficiency. Recommendation based on RCE research and interaction with the Border Transportation Advisory Panel suggest that the successful design and implementation of ITS technologies and innovative operating procedures in the border area will depend to a great extent on educating potential users and suppliers of ITS technologies. It will also be important to provide current and accurate information on existing conditions in the international trade and transportation environment; obsolete or incorrect information adversely affects the decision-making process.
