When: September 25-27, 2012
Where: Chicago, Illinois

The U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S.DOT) will be hosting a free public meeting and webinar to provide updates and promote lively discussion on the Connected Vehicle Safety, Vehicle-to-Infrastructure, and Testing programs; along with a special session discussing lessons learned in deploying ITS. The meeting is being organized by the Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office (ITS JPO), which is part of the Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA).

The goal of this forum is to identify research results to date and what remains in getting to the 2013 decision on Vehicle Communications for Safety, discuss what is evolving in terms of a robust vehicle-to-infrastructure environment, and identify what we have learned from past ITS deployments that can help with success for the future.
