No.8 - Summer 2026 When Fear Turns to Fury

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.

No.7 - ITS European Congress 2026 Review Special Edition

The special edition of ITS Edge Magazine has arrived, serving as the definitive review of what happened at the 17th ITS European Congress held in the historic and vibrant city of Istanbul between 27 and 29 April. This special issue moves beyond the headlines to explore how one of the world's most complex urban environments provided the perfect backdrop for a global strategy session on the future of mobility. Istanbul was not merely a host city, it was a living laboratory where the industry grappled with the transition from isolated pilots to city-wide platforms.
