ITS Now exists to provide informative and educational resources about Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), and should be of interest to technology practitioners in highways and mobility, along with people working in other engineering disciplines and for anyone who has an interest in transport generally. As well as the ITSNow.org website, resources include ITS Edge Magazine and our YouTube channel @ITSNow, along with original books and articles on a broad range of related topics.
ITS Now is proud to be Official Media Partner of ERTICO - ITS Europe

The roadside unit inhabits a curious presence in the ITS landscape. Most people never notice, yet it forms an important touchpoint between connected vehicles and the digital systems that shape their journeys.
The ITS industry has long celebrated the efficiency gains that digital systems deliver, but the carbon cost of the infrastructure that supports them has remained largely out of sight.
Vehicles once protected by physical boundaries and isolated electronic control units are operating as distributed digital platforms, constantly updated, constantly connected, and constantly exposed to new forms of cyber risk.
ERTICO's birthday arrives at a moment when preparations for the 2027 ITS World Congress in Birmingham are gathering pace, creating a sense of continuity between the origins of the movement and the next chapter of its global story.
In this edition of ITS Edge, in our feature article ‘When Fear Turns to Fury’, we introduce our Call to Action for the ITS sector to be proactive in response to rising public hostility for the use of technology on our streets caused by conspiracy theories and distrust. This is followed by the third-part of Paula Claytonsmith’s series, which this time looks at how trust is now the make-or-break factor for ITS. We also have contributions from ITS Korea, ERTICO and ITS UK, an article about how manufacturers' need to step up to ensure Cyber Security and we introduce CHIP in our Technology Insights section.
The special edition of ITS Edge Magazine has arrived, serving as the definitive review of what happened at the 17th ITS European Congress held in the historic and vibrant city of Istanbul between 27 and 29 April. This special issue moves beyond the headlines to explore how one of the world's most complex urban environments provided the perfect backdrop for a global strategy session on the future of mobility. Istanbul was not merely a host city, it was a living laboratory where the industry grappled with the transition from isolated pilots to city-wide platforms.
We look at what Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are and the types of applications these are typically used for in a highway context.
A friendly sidekick which may be defining a new category of daily driver, a glimpse of how autonomy, affordability and human-centred design could converge in the years ahead.
This year's award celebrates the ingenuity, engineering excellence and practical problem-solving that define the very best of our sector. The finalists demonstrate how intelligent transport technologies are delivering real-world impact, supporting the evolving needs of road users.
In the first of our Traffic Signals principles series, we look at the basic elements associated with 'phases' and 'stages' in traffic signal control.
