The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) will host its annual public meeting providing an overview of the Intelligent Transportation System Joint Program Office (ITS JPO) connected vehicle research program.

The Connected Vehicle Program Public Meeting is the best opportunity to learn details about the connected vehicle research program in anticipation of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s 2013 decision regarding vehicle safety communications for light vehicles and 2014 decision for heavy vehicles.

The meeting will be held from September 24 to 26, 2013, at the Holiday Inn in Arlington, VA. The meeting will have focused discussions on the ITS JPO’s connected vehicle safety program, including vehicle-to-vehicle communications, safety pilot, vehicle-to-infrastructure communications, human factors, and policy. There will also be a special session dedicated to the ITS Strategic Plan for 2015 to 2019. In addition, there will be a session on the developing U.S. DOT Multimodal Plan for Vehicle Automation.
