Session Description

Improving safety of transport systems always has and will remain a primary goal of ITS deployments , while making transport more sustainable is increasingly critical as governments and industry grapple with reducing carbon emissions. How can these two significant ambitions be realised and enhanced through the introduction of connected and automated vehicles into Australia’s transport system and the growth of Cooperative ITS in our vehicles, infrastructure and networks.  Additionally, how can we ensure the policy settings are right and cohesive nationally to support the adoption of these new technologies.

Hear from national and international leaders in transport technology who will discuss how we can deliver the connected and cooperative vehicles, infrastructure and transport networks that will save lives and fulfil critical environmental sustainability obligations now and into the future.
