ITS Now exists to provide informative and educational resources about Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), and should be of interest to technology practitioners in highways and mobility, along with people working in other engineering disciplines and for anyone who has an interest in transport generally. As well as the ITSNow.org website, resources include ITS Edge Magazine and our YouTube channel @ITSNow, along with original books and articles on a broad range of related topics.
ITS Now is proud to be Official Media Partner of ERTICO - ITS Europe

As the 2026 ITS World Congress draws to a close in Gangneung, attention turns from bold announcements to practical outcomes. The final day offers a chance to reflect on a week of innovation, collaboration and debate, while delegates focus on turning new ideas, partnerships and technologies into the next generation of intelligent mobility solutions.
As Gangneung’s ITS World Congress moves from innovation towards implementation, day four revealed an industry increasingly focused on deploying intelligent transport at scale. From Hall of Fame award winners and cooperative safety technologies to the launch of Birmingham 2027, the message was clear, success now depends on collaboration, interoperability, trust and delivering real-world outcomes.
The programme in Gangneung places the spotlight firmly on the technologies, policies and partnerships driving intelligent transport forward. From AI, connected mobility and digital infrastructure to international collaboration at the UK and ERTICO Pavilion, day four offers a packed agenda of technical insight, industry networking and practical innovation, bringing together global expertise to explore how smarter, safer and more connected transport systems can be delivered at scale.
Today's proceedings revealed a sector increasingly focused on real world deployment rather than future promise, while the gala dinner provided a fitting backdrop for strengthening the international partnerships that will help shape the next chapter of intelligent transport.
In this edition of ITS Edge Magazine, we celebrate two major gatherings for which ITS Now is proud to be Official Media Partner: the 2026 Gangneung ITS World Congress and Singapore Urban Mobility Week. We are joined by Hong Jee-sun, the ITS World Congress Organising Committee, Joost Vantomme, ERTICO and look at what to expect at The Singapore Urban Mobility Week. We also have articles about How Transport Works as a System and an update on the Digital Controller Interface Standard (DCIS), and in our Technology Insight item, where we look at MAV Systems AiQ Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR).
In this edition of ITS Edge, in our feature article ‘When Fear Turns to Fury’, we introduce our Call to Action for the ITS sector to be proactive in response to rising public hostility for the use of technology on our streets caused by conspiracy theories and distrust. This is followed by the third-part of Paula Claytonsmith’s series, which this time looks at how trust is now the make-or-break factor for ITS. We also have contributions from ITS Korea, ERTICO and ITS UK, an article about how manufacturers' need to step up to ensure Cyber Security and we introduce CHIP in our Technology Insights section.
We look at what Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are and the types of applications these are typically used for in a highway context.
A friendly sidekick which may be defining a new category of daily driver, a glimpse of how autonomy, affordability and human-centred design could converge in the years ahead.
This year's award celebrates the ingenuity, engineering excellence and practical problem-solving that define the very best of our sector. The finalists demonstrate how intelligent transport technologies are delivering real-world impact, supporting the evolving needs of road users.
In the first of our Traffic Signals principles series, we look at the basic elements associated with 'phases' and 'stages' in traffic signal control.
ITS Now are proud to be associated with some of the major ITS events occuring around the globe, as Official Media Partner.
