The Intelligent Transportation Systems Early Deployment Plan for the San Francisco Bay Area has been an effort to define priorities for use of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) in the region over the next five to ten years. Intelligent Transportation Systems is the name given to techniques which improve the operation, safety, or convenience of the transportation system by using electronics and communications to collect, process, disseminate, and act on information in real time. The ITS Early Deployment Plan focuses on both institutional issues and technological opportunities. It seeks to blend analysis of end user needs, evaluation of numerous technologies, and assessment of the desires and capabilities of the region's institutions, to identify the uses of ITS that best meet the Bay Area's regional transportation policies, particularly the Metropolitan Transportation System (MTS) Management Strategy. Desired end products of the effort are education, consensus on an action plan, and partnerships for deployment. The building of institutional 'infrastructure' is as critical as the more usual capital investments for the ultimate success of early ITS deployment.
