Across Europe, North America and Asia, the number of independent ITS suppliers is shrinking as mergers, acquisitions and strategic partnerships reshape the market.
The decision to reallocate up to £700million pounds from the DfT to help fund the £15billion plan will inevitably slow, reshape and in some places stall the deployment of ITS.
The ITS sector has spent the past decade talking about recruitment, but far less attention has been paid to the deeper, more structural workforce crisis unfolding beneath the surface.
The Autonomous Vehicles Stage at MOVE 2026 was the venue for an illuminating discussion to explore how safety, oversight and accessibility are integrated into automated mobility deployments.
The Expo delivered a rich seam of advances in simulation, breakthroughs in sensing, new architectures and a renewed focus on safety, cybersecurity and validation.
LCRIG’s annual gathering in the UK is grounded, practical and relentlessly focused on the realities of local roads, local authorities and the people who keep the network functioning.
ITS UK’s annual parliamentary reception brought together policymakers, industry leaders and innovators to see why ITS is critical for the future of UK transport.
The ITS America Conference & Expo returned to Detroit, the city once again became the proving ground for the next chapter of connected, automated and intelligent mobility.
Mobility data is the unruly teenager of the infrastructure world. It is everywhere, growing fast, often misunderstood, and almost entirely unregulated in any meaningful sense. The question is whether it should remain that way.
Growing concerns have been raising the alarm about a rise in confrontational behaviour towards people working in traffic systems, and a growing number of incidents where members of the public vandalise, disable, or steal roadside equipment.
A brand-new car-park ticket machine was found covered in expanding foam, rendering it completely useless. What does this tell us about public trust in ITS?
Smart mobility has spent the past decade presenting itself as the clean, frictionless future, yet beneath the optimism lies a truth that the sector rarely confronts, is ITS really carbon neutral?

Technologies have been used for many years to passively monitor activity on the highway, however over the years additional features have been added to assist in actively managing traffic, these range from informing users about current conditions, so that they can make their own decisions, such as automatically warning drivers of incidents using roadside variable message signs, through to compelling users to modify their driving, such as by implementing variable speed limits or by using enforcement cameras etc.
Ever seen rectangular, diamond or chevron black lines in the asphalt surface of a road and wondered what they are?
Many people assume that traffic signals emerged alongside the rise of motor vehicles, yet the foundations of modern signalisation were laid decades earlier. Long before roads were dominated by cars, engineers and scientists were grappling with the challenge of how to communicate movement, warning and control, at a distance.
This article introduces the key concepts of aspects, phases, stages, streams, and cycle time, and explains how they work together to manage traffic safely and efficiently.
