Queensland’s intelligent transport systems (ITS) pilot project
Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads has developed a pre-deployment and research program for cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS) and cooperative automated vehicle (CAV) technologies, referred to as the ITS Pilot Project. The project will comprise a large-scale field operational test for safety-focussed applications, as well as CAV research and demonstrations. In the context of the national direction, the pilot is a necessary step towards full deployment of C-ITS, which is ultimately required to enable connected and automated vehicles with optimal benefits realisation. It will also address an important gap in research on the performance and benefits of CAVs. This paper explores the investment rationale, strategic alignment, government’s role, and possible impacts moving forward.
