SPECIFIC APROACH OF ITS IMPLEMENTATION IN A COUNTRY IN TRANSITION- ROMANIA
In the last ten years, the ITS specialists and decision peoples pay a special attention to ITS deployment in the developing countries. The analyses, including Central and Eastern Europe, South America, South Africa and Asia zones, shows that the solutions and results of ITS implementation are different in comparison with developed countries. The term developing countries is too large. Other terms: transitional countries and emerging markets is trying to define the economical development. For the Central and Eastern European Countries, the term country in transition defines a process of transition from a very centralized to a market economy. ITS Handbook 2000 (1) has dedicated a hole chapter for a specific approach of ITS development in transitional countries. The countries in transition have common problems in connection with: (1) transition from a centralized to a market economy; (2) increase the weight and the role of private sector; (3) the road traffic growth; (4) the huge institutional changes; and (5) assuring the interoperability and European integration.
