Integrated Active Transportation System (IATS)


Project Description

The FHWA has envisioned a future Integrated Active Transportation System (IATS) wherein all elements of all modes of transport are connected to form a single integrated and managed system. The objective is to realize substantial improvements in both safety and mobility by optimizing flow and avoiding congestion and collisions. It is with this in mind that FHWA commissioned the Transportation Sustainability Research Center (TSRC) and Cogenia Partners with a project to explore how the nation’s transportations system will evolve during the 21st century. The project will provide a useful and long-range planning tool that can be used to guide research to support the IATS.
